In China
2012, English. Directed by Tara Merenda Nelson.
A travel memoir on two projectors: one reel is black and white, the other color. The films are superimposed at the time of projection, and edited together during a live performance in which I use chinese fans as external shutters. By blocking the light of one projector with a fan, the image of the other shines through. The sound is played on a small electronic Buddhist "chant box", which is passed through the audience during the performance.
