16mm

Overview

This movie was shot in 16 mm film in the southwestern Brazilian rainforest, the Mata Atlântica, with a custom modified camera. Following strategies of structural film making, 16mm plays with the footage roll used to film it as constitutive base of its form and content. A 16 mm film standard roll of 200 feet (60.96 meters) gives an approximate duration of 5' 33" (333"). That means 1 meter of film is consumed every 5.46 seconds or 18.3 cm. every second.
