NUMBER 5 REVERSAL is a richly textured exploration of the capacity of the personal, subjective film to carry layers of meaning. Its enigmatic opening sequence of two women in conversation is followed by an aural page/station structure, combining elements of horizontal and vertical montage in the soundtrack. The black and white photography weaves lyrical, pastoral nature with the de- and re- construction of civilisation in visually striking sequences. No 5 Reversal ends with a filmic signature, a image of its maker framed between the ruins of a window.
