A progression of events. Each scene is allegorical, a puzzle of symbology, from the initial cause to its extinction and finally to its representational aftermath. It is a personal vision of the realization of the confines of religious dogma and their eventual defeat and the realization of residual traces left over after its destruction.

In the mists of war and violence, the Harlequin, trumpet in hand, drifts through ravaged landscape passing a cripple and a marionette: Bernhard Heisig's pictorial worlds shock the viewer by depicting the great dramas of German history.

Neither this shore of this life nor the other shore of the after life. Had I crossed the other shore? It was a world created by light, shadow, people, and scenery captured on a small camera. A single moment captured on a single frame of 8mm film, small enough to fit on a finger, becomes a continuous string of life when played back.I must have held my breath, steadying my handheld camera as if contemplating, as I crossed the other shore. The footage ended with a view of the ocean at dawn in the middle of winter in the northern country. No, it wasn't over. A long time ago, a friend from my film school days told me, while drunk, "You should live your life like you're singing." I was nowhere near able to live that lightly, but after that, I spent several years creating this film. I drifted with a single will, and I think I finally finished it, even though it was unfinished. At the time, I couldn't respond to my friend's words, but even now I don't know if “Move like a Wind" was my answer.
