La jetée

'la jetée' deconstructs Chris Marker's seminal film. A 16mm film print of La Jetée is viewed on a microfish film viewer, functioning as a shutterless projector. Chris Marker's experiments in with-holding persistence of vision, becomes a film of analogue shape-shifting, reminiscent of Man Ray's spinning surrealist films, but La Jetée's moment of persistence of vision ironically denies animation.
