Léger tremblement du paysage

One of those rare films that perceives everyday micro-dramas with a bizarre sense of detail and humor that is familiar to me. From the first minute, I felt at home in the carousel of banalities, every bit of the puzzle of everyday destinies and unusual dreams fell exactly into place, and this whole visual essay-poem, built on moments of smallness, nothingness, loneliness and escape, impacted me deep in my soul. Formally, Fernandez's mosaic approach to reality reminded me of the new wave, but the content is very original... and the humor is absolutely brilliant. A very personal experience, of which there are not many throughout the year. (21.11.2009)
