So, 'Pool' is this really intriguing piece from 2002, though the director's name is a mystery. It’s not your conventional film, more of an experimental exploration with this unique blend of ambient sound and shortwave radio frequencies. The KHz range between 5000-8000 AM SW gives it this eerie yet meditative atmosphere. You feel like you’re eavesdropping on something deeply personal or even cosmic. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to sink into the soundscape rather than being bombarded with visuals. It's distinct because it doesn’t rely on traditional storytelling or acting; it’s about the environment and the feelings it conjures. Definitely an experience rather than a narrative-driven film, and that’s what sets it apart.
This film is somewhat of a rarity in collector circles, primarily due to its experimental nature and the obscure details surrounding its production. It’s been released in limited formats, making original copies quite sought after by enthusiasts of avant-garde cinema. Interest in 'Pool' has grown over the years as more collectors recognize its distinctive approach to sound and atmosphere, setting it apart in a sea of more traditional films.
