Orbit

by Tess Martin

This experimental film uses spinning drawings to guide the viewer along the flow of energy through our planet. The looped movements mirror the looping of our planet around the sun, the source of all life, leading us to ponder our place in the natural cycle. The film is created in the phonotrope technique. It premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam, and won the Shortcutz Amsterdam Best Experimental Film award. It has additionally screened at the Ann Arbor Film Festival, Zinebi Bilbao, Theater Rotterdam, and many others.
