Chamnan

In this film, all of the effects, layering of images, and editing were achieved via camera techniques employed during the shoot. However, the rhythms and tempi were all planned and projected before the filming. Chamnan was shot in a single room in Bangkok, in the Reno Hotel, over several days. This film might be the closest I have come to a self-study. It was an extremely emotional time as my brother had just been killed. I left for Thailand to remove myself from the abstractions of daily living and to spend time with my friend Chamnan. His image is present in most of the film. This film is a meditation on being and that vast space between the self and the other, where the gaze is returned in mute silence and the sense of knowing oneself is shattered.
