THE TIMEKEEPERS OF ETERNITY
dir. Aristotelis Maragkos, 2021
64 mins. Greece.
In English.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21ST - 3PM WITH REMOTE Q&A TO FOLLOW

In a painstaking process that calls to mind the Library of Congress Paper Print Film Collection (an initiative that ended up giving many films an afterlife beyond their initial celluloid deaths), Maragkos printed each frame of a 3-hour 1995 miniseries adaptation of a novella by the world’s most famous horror writer onto black and white paper to then rephotograph them back into motion with many artistic liberties taken along the way. Visible crinkles, cuts, and tears inflicted on the paper images create both dramatic emphasis and nihilistic resonance as ten passengers aboard a night-time flight awaken to realize everyone aboard has vanished.
