Once Every Day

Once Every Day is a highly visual and complexly edited film that presents a series of semi-ritualistic behaviors acted out by a group of 25 individuals. The narrative eschews traditional structure, focusing instead on the unpredictability of their actions and the aborted impulses that arise. As noted by Foreman, the film evolves into a "time-mosaic of reformatted consciousness," reflecting his unique approach to storytelling. Fans of avant-garde cinema will find Foreman's transition from theater to film to be an intriguing exploration of his artistic vision.

This film offers a distinct experience for viewers interested in experimental narratives and non-linear storytelling. Foreman's work in the Ontological-Hysteric Theater has long been a highlight of New York's artistic scene, and Once Every Day serves as a fascinating extension of his theatrical techniques into the realm of feature films. Collectors of independent or avant-garde films may appreciate this unique entry in Foreman's oeuvre as it captures his distinctive style and thematic concerns in a new format.
