Contacts

1970 · 18 min

A raw, primitive experimental short that washes over you through abstract electronic sound, mesmerizing and hypnotic rather than narrative.

Directed by
Ed Sommer, Irm Sommer
Overview
Super obscure experimental short film. Very raw and primitive, it features a great soundtrack made of amazing psychedelic abstract electronic music (the song is “I Of IV” by electronic music pioneer Pauline Oliveros), which is probably what makes this short some kind of mesmerizing experience
How it feels
Slow-burning and demanding.
Content
No violence, gore, sexual content or swearing.
