So, 'Self Portrait Portrait' is this intriguing short doc about Bryan Lewis Saunders, who’s been on this wild journey of creating a self-portrait every day for almost two decades. The film really captures his raw process, which is devoid of any pretension. It's like peeling back the layers of his life, seeing everything from joy to despair in these intimate slices. What stands out is the pacing—it's steady, almost meditative, letting you soak in each artwork and emotion. The atmosphere feels personal, like you’re privy to his thoughts and feelings. There’s something incredibly distinctive about his dedication and the way he invites you into his world without any filters. Definitely a unique exploration of the self.
This film is somewhat of a hidden gem, as it hasn’t seen extensive mainstream distribution, making copies a bit scarce. Its limited availability has piqued interest among collectors who appreciate deep dives into artist processes. Some formats may be rare, so keep an eye out if you're into nuanced documentary work that goes beyond just surface-level narratives.
