Passacaglia and Fugue (1975)
• May 30th, 1975 • 0h 19min
Overview
A movie filmed almost entirely in the interior of a house on the outskirts of S.C. de Bariloche, on the shores of Nahuel Huapi Lake, over the course of one full winter and the beginning of a spring. The camera, through frame-by-frame tracking and panning shots, goes along revealing furniture, corners, objects and books, using rails in the first instance and a calibrated disk mounted on a tripod in the second. The house vibrates with its own life, revealing almost ghostlike traces and vestiges while the human presence is barely suggested. These shots alternate with others of the landscape: a lake, snow, bushes rattled by the wind, the passing of the seasons, external signs that accentuate the solitude of the interior spaces.
