   i liked this! many elements in play that i love to see (chess, backwards, laughter, b/w) great work! don’t listen to the ignorance and negativity of those who speak from a place of weakness and insensitivity. i second the appropriate citation of the wonderful jim jarmusch.

   why not put the title of your film on the video before ‘surreal film project’ respect your work and always be proud of it!!! thank you for sharing with us!

   So the chess pieces represent famine and the video represents war. Poignant, moving.

   This is more horror than surreal. Nice effects though.

    Thank you. I appreciate constructive criticism and look forward to seeing your surreal stuff in the future.

    I thought the photography was extremely well done. The use of pause and rewind and mute was smooth, and selective colouring with the blood was good but at the same time not overly original, but I know it looks nice and is very tempting to do lol. Very good film. I haven’t finished my surreal stuff yet, all I have uploaded is a really bad group effort lol.

    And, the appearance of the acrylic balls in this film is purposeful and symbolic, though, of course, I will not explain the meaning! Surrealist films are meant to be interpreted, not revealed.

    Yeah, the acting in your “experiments” deserve Academy Awards, I’m sure.

    Because I have one shot of contact juggling, I am plagiarizing “The Labyrinth?” Contact juggling was made popular by Michael Moschen before “The Labyrinth,” and has connections stretching even further back into history. To state that a movie owns rights to a hobby/performance that many people practice is misconceived.
