Julian

Julian, dir. Antonio Da Silva, 2012, UK/Portugal, 10 min.
part of “Kiss Me Softly” shorts program

The Frameline37 program guide describes Julian thusly: “A cross between a road-trip in Portugal and a summer love story, shot on Super-8 film, this gorgeous short contains a poetic narrative that embodies various myths created by mankind.” Well, I’ll grant you that it was on Super-8 film. It was a disjointed series of clips with annoying rough cuts burying any “poetic narrative” that might have been present. Not recommended.
