Left Side, Riverside 2011

Directed by Caryn Cline

LEFT SIDE, RIVERSIDE experimentally documents the filmmaker's experience of Riverside Park, on the left side of Manhattan. The film combines "live action" footage and in-camera double exposures. This footage is then further layered by superimposing and bi-packing the camera footage with handmade and hand-painted film frames created from plants and flowers gleaned in Riverside Park. The ambient sounds come from both Riverside Park and the filmmaker’s childhood home in northeastern Missouri.
