Michael, thank you so much. For me, what you write also applies, there
never was any resolution, and never any stability; like a lot of us, I
came out damaged...

It evokes a really complex response in this viewer at least.
There's a discomfort at being made voyeur at the same time as an admiration
for your honesty and also a kind of mental accounting
as we think about our own experiences and those close to us.
There's something so touching about the fragility of your - I start to call
it performance but it's clearly something much more primordial than that -
but there's also a confidence (god knows how many films you have made and
this experience tells!) about the simplicity of the framing - it could have
been simple and wrong and it's simple and right.
The whole thing is enormously unstable for the viewer, with no possibility
of resolution.
I don't know I should even praise it as art when it feels so awkwardly posed
between that and some kind of therapy...

Last Glass

The last glass of wine from my father, a video.
My life? Almost nothing but regrets.
It's all gone; the conversation, cries and
murmurs, fear on my part, never existed.
This should go viral, it did with me, but no
last word. What is this like?
