Snow Business

About This Movie

So, 'Snow Business' is this fascinating documentary that dives into the mind of Michael Snow, an experimental filmmaker whose work is really something else. You get a peek at his unique approach to film with snippets from pieces like 'Wavelength' and 'La Region Central'. The pacing feels almost meditative at times, allowing you to really soak in the atmosphere he creates. There's this intriguing exploration of perception and how we interact with the medium. The extracts are a bit disjointed, but that kind of reflects Snow's style, doesn't it? The whole thing was made for Channel 4's 'Visions', and it’s packed with insights that are just as relevant today as they were back in '83. It gives you a real sense of the experimental scene from that era, which is quite cool.
