Let Clay Be Clay

Just watched your picture my friend! It's really powerful. "Look at the clay like a mirror." Beautiful work. Thank you for telling the story. Making it personal with the teaching. I love the fluidity of time and space - you're such a talented and one-of-a-kind editor with your filmed material. The sudden, selective/non-standard choices for sound reminds me of Godard. Love how you move around and rack as Cassius sculpts and sings - fluid motion with a fluid story. Grace. Such strong connected performances you sculpted from your cast. Real listening. You know I know how hard that is, Brocasso. The knife and the biblical sign in bed - poetic mise en scene. The documentary footage of the grieving mother. The march at the end and the fight continuing. With the soundtrack of testimony.
