epitaph*
| France | 12 MINUTES | English
On September 11, smoke billowed up from the lower Manhattan skyline. The future was more uncertain than ever, and time seemed to freeze. From the sound of the first plane flying low over Manhattan, to the candles that lit New Yorkers' faces during the aftermath of the attack, epitaph* leads us through the experiences of that tragic day. Filmmaker Lubtchansky uses 71 "digitally painted" press photos and 1 short video in order to create a poetic visual memorial.
