Perimeter is an intriguing piece from '76, marked by those relentless camera movements that just pull you into the chaos of urban life. It’s almost hypnotic, the way it traces the lines of force over that bustling intersection, creating a palpable tension. There’s no conventional plot here, yet the atmosphere is so thick you could cut it with a knife. It feels like a study on the interplay between movement and stillness, a sort of dance with the city itself. The absence of a named director adds to its allure, leaving it mysterious and almost like a found artifact of that era. You get lost in the rhythm, and it’s the kind of film that lingers in your mind long after it's over.
Perimeter has seen limited releases over the years, which makes finding a good quality copy a bit of a hunt for collectors. The film wasn't widely recognized upon release, but its experimental nature has garnered a niche following. Given its distinct lack of a defined genre and director, it stands out in any collection, appealing to those interested in avant-garde cinema or urban studies. Keep an eye out for any screenings or archives that might feature it, as the physical formats are getting harder to track down.
