Atlantic

In Sam TaylorJohnsons words I wanted Atlantic to feel like you could be coming in as you say at any point not necessarily at the beginning or the end but somewhere towards the middle where something is about to happen It could be the beginning of an argument or an argument petering out the only thing those people have in common is the space they occupy They are totally isolated within their own activity or mental space you are looking at two people interacting but you project what the discussion or argument is about The viewer is put in the position of the people in the restaurant who are onlookers And as an onlooker youre straining to understand what exactly is taking place I want people to construct their own narrative so theyre looking at it and giving it endless possibilities 16mm film Threescreen projection
