Delphi Falls

2017 · 20 min

A disorienting, cerebral experiment that keeps shifting perspective, leaving you unsure whose eyes you're seeing through.

Directed by: Mary Helena Clark

Overview: By testing the limits of identification with the camera’s point of view, Delphi Falls cycles through multiple subjectivities. The film misuses more traditional narrative conventions - the suggestion of a story, the anchoring of actors as protagonists - to have the viewer constantly questioning who or what they are, and where they are located in the film’s world.
