Triage

About This Movie

Triage is an intriguing exploration of duality, with two directors crafting their own segments without any cross-communication. On one side, you've got Snow's almost hypnotic visual catalog of objects, both organic and artificial, which creates this meditative atmosphere that lingers. Then there's Brown's take, which is a fascinating transformation of a San Francisco cable car, adding a layer of urban nostalgia. The pacing shifts dramatically between the two, making it feel like a dialogue of contrasting visions. It’s those practical effects and the sheer originality that give it a distinctive edge, really an experiment in storytelling and visual language that feels quite rare.

Triage has not seen a wide release in various formats, making it somewhat elusive for collectors. Its scarcity arises from limited screenings and niche appeal, which only adds to its intrigue. There’s a bit of a cult following among avant-garde film enthusiasts, but it’s not exactly mainstream, which can sometimes make it a challenge to track down. If you come across it, it’s worth considering for those who appreciate experimental cinema.
