A Slice of Life or the Crumbs of Existence

Janet Merewether 1993 Australia b/w 15min English DCP
"I do not cut my life up into days, but my days into lives, each hour, an entire life." Seven days,seven moods, seven lives. The romantic myths of Paris are deconstructed, and a vision of the city reformed through the fragments of ritual memory, rhythm and the minutiae of daily life.
