A Side View of An Eclipse in 99.8% Totality is this intriguing debut from Landon Best. It’s a short documentary that immerses you in the ambience of a nearly complete eclipse. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative, capturing the gradual dimming of light and the intense atmosphere it creates. There’s no real narrative, just raw, live footage that feels almost like a visual poem. It’s distinctive for its focus on the sensory experience rather than a traditional storyline. The practical effects are, well, nature itself, which adds a layer of authenticity. You might find yourself lingering in those moments, just soaking it all in, which is really the point, right? It’s a unique piece for collectors interested in atmospheric cinema.
