Ancientry
Summary
Ancientry is an early film by Paul de Mol. He films a vase that is on the edge of a pond in a park. While filming, Mole makes frequent use of the ‘single frame shot’ – an extremely short shot that consists of only of one frame, which is the building block of film.
Occasionally the bombardment of images makes way for a longer shot, which enhances the contrast and gives the viewer a moment of rest.
