In light of the films and a text written by Starling in relation to \u2018\u1ed5n \u0111\u1ecbnh \u0111\u1ed9ng\u2019, they will contemplate spatial and temporal, poetic and political dimensions which \u201copen up the possibility of engaging with infinity within the very finiteness\u201d* of a de\/constructed tent and film space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABOUT THE WORKS<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Inextinguishable Fire (1969), 22:07min<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Inextinguishable Fire adheres to a short experimental documentary format and an essayistic style combining text, narration, and images collected from the mass communications industry. The film is a critique of the American War in Vietnam and the role of industry in the production of chemical weapons. It begins with the following narration: “When we show you pictures of napalm victims, you’ll shut your eyes. You’ll close your eyes to the pictures. Then you’ll close them to the memory. And then you’ll close your eyes to the facts.” In analyzing the production, dissemination, and consumption of images, he revealed the inextricable links<\/p>\n\n\n\n

between media culture, politics, technology, and violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The In\/Extinguishable Fire (2019), 31:36min<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A father and daughter explore their relationship by contemplating the aerodynamics of flying objects and recounting fragmented microhistories of the Cold War period in Germany\u2014birthplace of the daughter\u2014and Vietnam\u2014birthplace of the father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
