Cinematic Reflections, 2008

Movies are an escape, a place where dreams and knowledge are realized and shared with others. While being so, they hold up a mirror as we sit in the theater and laugh or cry or criticize. Cinematic Reflections bridges the gap between the escape of entertainment and awareness. Movies and movie-makers become their biggest and toughest critic here, showing us their aptitude for self-examination and understanding of their own transience and insecurities. The assemblage is also very entertaining.
