Lazarus (2010)

Full Overview

(Warning: this description might be a spoiler for the revelatory nature of this extremely short 3 minute film) Combining both constructed, contrived imagery with secretly scavenged footage of a real medical procedure, a mysterious progression from darkness into consciousness is created, and, ironically, the authentic footage contains the most overt iconic symbolism. This is a brief example of the cinematic potential of reality mixed with fiction: of combining a chance recording of an interesting moment in reality with constructed, manipulated imagery into a lyrical poetic concept that invites narrative speculation.
