Bend, 2022
The film about Octothorpe House is presented in a series of sequences with each introducing a different subject and space. From the dog’s life as he lays on the concrete floor and the intense soccer match happening inside the garage, to the views from within the enclosed courtyard and the reflection of the desert landscape in the exterior windows.
