Spark (Fall 2014)
"The following film is almost entirely a work of fiction. Almost" So begins Spark's final unspooling (actually films really unspool these days but still) The story of a self obsessed artist who's attention seeking suicide attempt forces him to refocus on life. Where to start? In the Beginning... In seeking his loved one's forgiveness for his downward spiral he contemplates the very nature of his existential crisis: from the big bang through his own conception, to the afterlife, and back to bathtub in Paris and the cold light of day. It's an explicit, eccentric, obsessive and elegiac story of the struggle to forgive one's self.
