Director
With a super 8 cartridge I shot moons ago, labelled "unknown", I'm back in the darkroom after some months. Ah, it's the river near home! Turned out to look just how I felt, with muted brown, false horizon, chemical re-balance and frayed nerve.

Same shot of my house, thinking about moving. Moving out/moving in, emptying boxes one at a time.

Director
"Same shot of my house, Double 8mm film variously hand-processed, over months of thinking about moving. Sound on a cassette pulled from a box I was going to purge; tape from 1986 (the year I moved here), now chance overdubbing my thoughts on to a radio program about the power of women." —Sandy McLennan
