The Gap in the Curtain
1989, English. Directed by François Miron.
Very short sequences of geometrically-shaped colourful film images file past ultra-fast fashion to produce an intense stroboscopic flickering effect. A study of visual perception based on the persistence of vision and a tribute to the work of American filmmaker Paul Sharits.
