Pariscope

Finally, two weeks after the heats, Pariscope is in the clouds now!

This film fits right into Heat #7, where everything is WTF. This is crazy, bro. I never seen this before. What's going on? It's a hobby, man. This is so oddly specific to the 48Hours context and culture that I don't know what to make of it.

I enjoy the retro low-fi analogue look that comes from the periscope, messing with the colours and catching lights and reflections in all sorts of interesting ways.

The characters are fun and distinctive. The gags are humorous. I will admit I am completely lost by the plot, but I like how everyone goes on a journey that takes them to the same intriguing destination.

Apparently wagging tongues are a thing now in 48Hours, and I wonder if I'm a mid-30s has-been incapable of understanding modern references.

Æ this reminded me of Tarkovsky, and Elem Klimov.
I loved the decision to embrace vibes and dive into a magical realism vibe, where things aren't necessarily literal.
As an artistic exploration of anarchic power structures in a Peter Pan vibe, fantastic work!

I think this works probably pretty elusive to normies though! It's incredibly strange!

Normie here! and I fully agree with Felix ahahahahahaha

This was great - but man oh man were we completely lost - loved it though, wouldn't change a thing. Prime example of making what you want to make and having a good time doing it.

THE BEST THING: The character with the guitar was the highlight for us

THE NEXT THING: Depends what your aim is, if you're here to compete for a finals slot, then you gotta work on your clarity of story. If you couldn't care less about that and just wanna make something with vibes, then you don't have to change a goddamn thing
