Director: James Benning
Movie review
From Time Out London
Benning’s startlingly simple but profound latest work films 13 lake scenes from across the US for exactly 10 minutes each, dividing the single frame equally between water and sky. Without camera movement, the eye is free to wander and consider the implications of subtle shifts in the dual environments. The result deepens both our ecological awareness and our ability truly to attend to the moment.Author: GE
