A journey through a variety of film materials. In ONE WEEK (USA 1920), Buster Keaton attempts to build a house by himself against all comic odds and hair-raising setbacks. A short comedy shot on 35-mm film, the standard format for shooting and screening over decades. Many directors later opted for much cheaper 16-mm film, among them Marie Menken, who gazes at her greenery in GLIMPSE OF THE GARDEN (USA 1957). In AERIAL (UK 1974), Margaret Tait releases the smaller 16-mm camera from the tripod to take full advantage of its mobility. In her digital film experiment ILOX (D 2001), Karø Goldt manipulates the image to see how long a flower is still recognizable as a flower. And in SOUTH OF TEN (USA 2006), Liza Johnson applies her inexpensive DV material as sparingly as if it was Buster Keaton’s pricey 35-mm film. (Anna Faroqhi) For audiences 5 and up
