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 mixture of investigation groups, live performances, screenings and installations at DCA; the festival looked to strip back music, sound, film and moving image to their core ideas and explore them with artists and audiences.
