Fragments For Eye Drift

Fragments For Eye Drift — Plot

A film about seeing. A cut up of fragments from personal diary films intercut with WWII archive footage of the fire bombing of Dresden and Hamburg from the air and the ground (...) The ruins of Dresden's Frauenkirche and cranes are silhouetted against the sky. My daughter Ra as a child runs past the apple tree in Gran's garden in winter. Summer fruit ripens on an Umbrian hillside. Darren is sleeping. Dark streets of Perugia. The train to Siracusa the year after Mum died. The train from Dresden Hauptbahnhof to Berlin the year Derek and my mentor and curator Manfred Salzgeber died. Ten years on. With friends with HIV. Music from Simon Fisher Turner.
