Summary:

Metronome is both the most straightforward, as well as the most difficult of my films. It is very dear to my heart. The radio play soundtrack is off-set by the intractable images "spaces." the former seems to balance precariously between kitsch and true heartrending emotion and the latter is referencing the asceticism of seventies minimalism (in experimental film) with the impenetrable intellectualism becoming increasingly moving as the film progresses. The marriage of these two elements is an odd tension, the tale of the play, the threat of limb extraction, asks the necessity of "whole and what the elements are that compose complete"
