Synopsis

The Pagoda in London’s Kew Gardens is rarely open to the public. It was open for a short time last year and I took the opportunity to climb all 253 wooden steps having first done so 60 years before.

Confidences Confidences

Director: Stuart Pound

Year: 2025

A private conversation is transformed into a soundscape where only the occasional word emerges with any clarity. Moiré patterns move like human shapes, meet then separate into the darkness.

Specto Specto

Director: Stuart Pound

Year: 2025

Ampersand, 1978, re-purposes clips from a 1974 film I never completed. In Specto they are re-purposed again. The hot tungsten filament of a Specto film projector is a recurring image, along with re-worked clips of a troupe of actors performing Artaud’s Jet of Blood at locations in the city of Lincoln. You’ll see the cathedral and a dilapidated mill with UNSAFE 74 painted on its wall.

South Kensington South Kensington

Director: Stuart Pound

Year: 2024

A street corner near the London underground station. It’s on the route to the Royal Brompton Hospital, where open heart surgery is carried out.
