What we are able to see is only a small part of a picture. As the title is hinting towards, this video is a look at its own medium via Plato’s cave allegory. By turning the camera towards the opening of the projector, filming its light during a film, I am aiming at pointing at the ideas and thoughts behind what we normally see.
