Men of the Earth

Australia, Fiction, 2012, 10′

Through a vigorous sequence shot we see a group of men. They don’t speak, but behave as if they were performing a ritual. It is a mournful elegy in a construction area. So we are not surprised when Kavanagh, who we know for the masterful At the Formal (IndieLisboa ’12), pushes from the absurd to reality. (M. V.)
