A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
A cinema of the mind, a film to take place in the viewers’ imagination(s).

An open-ended moment in an ongoing series of films, notes, performances, diagrams and drawings which trace the questions they share. A “porous space between cinema time-space and lived time-space.”
