LIN
Directed by PIERS THOMPSON - 25 minutes
Three minute clip
This is a calm, certain piece of work, which follows a woman wandering with intent through a strange and unpredictable landscape.
LIN was a hugely rewarding project to work on, and it didn't surprise me at all to watch it gather praise and awards. Piers, who also wrote the film, is a methodical filmmaker with an artist's approach to the medium, feeling his way through the process. The material was in an ungainly shape when I started, and we spent weeks paring it down. Scenes were removed or repurposed, flashforwards found and rhythms created. It was a meticulous process that allowed a very special film to emerge.
