Hold exploits the fact that film is made up of separate frames. The majority of the piece features a new person in every frame, or every eighteenth of a second. For certain periods of the video two or three people are held longer, by using consecutive frames to jump back and forth between people, the sound and the mechanism of the film are relentless; no resolution is reached; we continue to move forward.
