THE FINAL TOUCH
dir Pierre Yves Clouin • 01/France 2m
There's only ambient sound--and very little of that even--in this single shot in which a camera roams around a wall and then stops at a small mirror in which we can see the back of a man who's wearing only a T-shirt. Eventually we realise he's wanking. Absurd and pointless. 16.Apr.02 llgff

dir-scr Pierre Yves Clouin • 02/US 3m ***
This single take seems utterly random, like most of Clouin's films, but it has a serious sting in its tale as it tracks up an evening street in Paris, where the pavement is full of cafe tables and boistrous people. Then at the end we stop, the sound fades, and we retrace our steps to where we might have seen something rather shocking. The film catches you off guard with its simple yet pointed way of expressing something very important. 8.Mar.03 llgff
