Intervals

About This Movie

Intervals is a fascinating short by Peter Greenaway that really gets under your skin. Shot in a static format, it's all about those peeling posters on back street walls, just sitting there while life buzzes around them. The camera doesn’t move, yet the quick cuts and the absence of dialogue create this hypnotic tension. The constant pedestrian traffic adds a sort of rhythm, almost like a heartbeat. The experimental editing, especially those abrupt blackouts, plays with your perception. It's not about the story, but rather about the atmosphere. You feel the city, the transience of life, captured in these fleeting moments. It’s a unique experience, a meditation on urban existence.
