How do you film apocalyptic events? How can cinema record experiences of utter destruction? How much dread can be conveyed simply by pieces of footage? And how can audiences engage with such material and then return to the everyday present?
This month, Trembling Images‘ Club explores these questions through their Ends of a World double feature of La Soufrière-Waiting for an Inevitable Disaster (1977) and Sleep Has Her House (2017).
In contrast, the Welsh art filmmaker Scott Barley uses a combination of still photography, illustrations and iPhone shot footage of rural Scotland and Wales to produce a work of slow cinema depicting mysterious and deadly paranormal hauntings.
