Description

The film is an impressionistic documentary focusing on a few moments in a small town along the coast of Maine on the Fourth of July. The approach to image is very painterly with the careful use of a shallow depth of field and natural objects to bend and twist the images into a languid sense of time. In the end, the film documents a state of mind more than a particular spot. 30th AAFF
