Craig Welch takes a turn for the rivetingly surreal with this 11 minute short film, “How Wings Are Attached To The Backs Of Angels”. The skinny from the National Film Board of Canada after the leap…
In this surreal exposition, we meet a man, obsessed with control. His intricate gadgets manipulate yet insulate, as his science dissects and reduces. How exactly are wings attached to the back of angels? In this invented world drained of emotion, where everything goes through the motions, he is brushed by indefinite longings. Whether he can transcend his obsessions and fears is the heart of the matter. A film without words.
Enjoy.
