"Do you remember your first love? ... Do you remember your first kiss? ... Do you remember? ..."
"Filmmaker Marc Isaacs sets himself up in a London tower block lift. The residents come to trust him and reveal the things that matter to them creating a humorous and moving portrait of a vertical community."
"...based in transitional areas, pinch points, places through which people travel to go somewhere, or hope to. It is in these places that Isaacs sows questions that take people off-guard, reconnecting them with the deeper motivations and themes of their lives. "

I love the lift video, i remember watching it 2 years ago and was unexpectedly glued to watching it, just like i was now. It's as if theres to much to say as religion, stories, views/opinions, greetings, shyness and other parts play a role in the short film.
ReplyDeleteI liked how after a while everyone got used to Marc filming and purposely gave him detailed, personal information on their goings on. I think this can be closely linked to my idea, as we always make first judgements but then as time unravels we get to understand what they could be going through.
Though i don't know why the guy has a hot tub in his flat.
