Out of nothing... nothing

The Arrival (1998)

Directed by Peter Tscherkassky this is first in a trilogy of experimental short films. Distorted images flicker across the screen as a train arrives at the station.

To me this film comes across as distortion for the sake of distortion leaving it hard to take anything from this film. As an exercise in technique it may be interesting but it left me cold. I do not think this sort of experimental film is for me.


2/5
