Available for the first time on DVD, Guy Sherwin’s acclaimed Short Film Series, a unique collection of interconnected 16mm 3 minute films started in 1975. The series is held together by certain formal considerations: each film is three minutes long, i.e. the length of a roll of 16mm film, all films are b/w and silent, and the order in which they are shown is flexible. Apart from this there is a range of imagery from portraiture to still life to travel.

Description
The films operate on the border between movement and stillness, revealing their inner logic through an active engagement in looking. '100' reels of epiphanies, time-lapse studies, ordinary objects and scenes rendered strange and ambiguous.
