This is not a political film (2024) is quite the unique entry in the POLITICAL GESTURES series. It presents the only televised debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, distilled into a laborious frame-by-frame capture. There's something almost clinical about the way it’s presented, using laboratory emulsions to dissect the performance of each candidate. The pacing is methodical, forcing you to linger on each moment, making you reconsider the weight of words spoken in the heat of debate. It feels like a study in rhetoric and spectacle rather than just a political event, leaning heavily into themes of representation and media manipulation. You'll find its atmosphere almost haunting, as it strips away the usual spectacle of such debates.
This film is a rare specimen, particularly due to its format, utilizing specialized laboratory emulsions, which aren't commonly found in political documentaries. Given its niche subject matter and the scarcity of such meticulous recordings, collector interest has steadily increased. It's not just a film; it's a methodical examination of a pivotal moment, making it a point of discussion among collectors who appreciate the intersection of art and politics.
