Fuji

Using rotoscope technique, the film constitutes an abstract recreation of Mt. Fuji in Japan. In addition to rotoscope imagery, Breer utilizes live-action footage and simple line drawing, and manages to shift between them with a fluidity that blurs perceptual distinction. Mt. Fuji is a giant triangle and the passing landscape a series of rectangles punctuated by the vertical lines of electricity poles. The visual imagery of a train ride is transformed into an experience of kinetic geometry.
