Genre:
Experimental Documentary







Synopsis:
Chris Gallagher's feature‐length film essay Time Being is an elegant
and thoughtprovoking investigation of the nature and experience of
time, and its filmic representation. 88 one‐minute shots or
shot‐sequences counterpoint a spoken commentary that probes and
questions the subject from many different angles ‐ psychological,
philosophical, mechanical, cosmological, artistic. Equally, Gallagher
combines aspects of different cinemas ‐ documentary, structural,
poetic, narrative, and personal ‐ skillfully interweaving all the
elements into a complex yet coherent and surprisingly moving statement
on the human condition. The most brilliant film on its subject I've
ever seen, Time Being is cool and non‐academic yet deeply engaged,
and beautifully shot.
