Summary: Brakhage’s last film, the hand-scratched Chinese Series (2003)—finished just weeks before his death—flickers across the screen as suggestions of Chinese ideograms, while at the same time, as filmmaker Courtney Hoskins would have it, evoking a sense of “running through a humid bamboo forest . . . [in which] green and yellow stalks create these glowing shadows as they cut across the sunlight.” (Criterion)
Genre: Short
Country: USA
Directed By: Stan Brakhage

Brakhage's final film. This knowledge gives the film an elegiac heft. The black and white starkness feels like a last gasp, with Brakhage scraping out a final, cryptic message for the world.

An appropriate final film, but it doesn't really work for me on any level.
