My Influences

About This Movie

So, 'My Influences' is an interesting project, really. It's a documentary that feels like a collection of personal reflections from various directors, each trying to make sense of the world during these unusual times. The pacing varies quite a bit – some segments feel almost like poetry, while others are more straightforward in their commentary. The practical effects are minimal, focusing on the raw honesty of the home settings, which adds a layer of intimacy. It's fascinating to see how each filmmaker interprets their surroundings and experiences, drawing inspiration from Georges Perec's 'Species of Spaces'. You get this vibe of collective isolation but also creative resilience. It’s definitely a unique piece to consider if you appreciate experimental cinema.
