One Sour Sweet End

Overview

I hate Kodak color negatives. I promised myself I'd never buy them, but in a batch of film I found two of these cartridges, so I decided to test myself. At first, I had the idea of using them only to capture a year's worth of sunsets edited in camera, but then I realized how pointless it was to limit myself. Two Rhine maidens debut in my prelude. The first (cartridge) is bitter, the second is much sweeter. Both are connected although for different reasons to my feature film "Shadow of the Valley." One introduces it, the other puts an end to it. It took me a little less than a year to finish filming this short, perhaps because I didn't believe in it at all.
