Prison 1 (1969)

Movie 8 min

During the winter of 1968–69, I saw that much of the footage I was shooting was filled with a tension reflecting my own anxieties. Rather than terminate my filmmaking, I chose to shoot a film about self-generating depression. Prison I is about the frustration and fear reaching out to others and risking the revelation of one’s self.
