Tumble

1991 · 4 min

A quiet, experimental four-minute drift that feels more like watching a photographer think than watching a story unfold.

Directed by
Richard Kern
Starring
Linda Serbu
Overview
Tumble demonstrates Richard Kern’s departure from narrative filmmaking in the early nineties. He was clearly more interested now in photography, and specially in the merging of documentary and model photography.
