Flight and Frame is an intriguing dive into the experimental realm of 8mm and 16mm filmmaking, particularly resonant in the context of the pandemic. The director's choice to juxtapose footage shot during Japan's state of emergency with scenes from Taiwan gives it this unique, almost disjointed rhythm. There’s a rawness to the editing—each 8mm frame meticulously cut and pasted onto 16mm film creates a tactile quality that feels both personal and reflective. The film captures fleeting moments, a sort of visual diary, echoing themes of displacement and memory. You can almost feel the weight of nostalgia in each frame. It’s a distinctive piece that speaks to the experience of moving and the quiet upheaval of 2020, embodying a poignant silence that lingers.
