About This Movie

Suppose a Beam of Light is this intriguing audiovisual correspondence between Kellen R. Jackson and Jeffrey Ellom. It’s not your typical narrative film; it’s more like a meditative exploration of concepts like deep time and quantum optics. The atmosphere is contemplative, with a pacing that invites you to linger over its visuals and ideas. There’s a unique blending of personal letter and philosophical inquiry that makes it distinctive. You feel the oscillation between the intimate and the cosmic, and that’s something to appreciate. The way it handles themes of queer kinmaking, using practical effects and microscopic imagery, adds to its depth and complexity.

This film has a somewhat elusive presence in collector circles, primarily due to its experimental nature and unconventional format. Limited releases and niche screenings have made it a bit harder to find, which adds to its charm for dedicated collectors. There's a growing interest in films that challenge traditional storytelling, and this one certainly fits the bill with its thought-provoking themes and aesthetic choices.
