Description:
This film explores Dewdney's belief that the projector, rather than the camera, is the core medium for filmmaking. The film's structure and content are directly shaped by how a projector works, particularly the movement of its Maltese cross, which visually represents the projector's key components and motions. It also suggests a relationship between continuous and interrupted movements throughout the entire process, from the machine's mechanics to how viewers perceive the images. The film’s soundtrack similarly utilizes continuous and interrupted sounds. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2009.
