A film made in 1923? Yes, you read it right. 1923!!
ASHOK’s FIVE reviews #ManRay’s #LeRetouralaRaison or #Return to Reason made in 1923. This is a Dadaist film that shows sundry objects moving against a black background. The objects include pins, stationery and pepper holders.
True to the Dadaist philosophy, the credo is Art for Art’s sake and is surreal and almost psychedelic. There is a cameo with the cabaret persona Kiki da Montparmasse as well.
#ReturntoReason has a runtime of 2 min 32 seconds and is available on #MuBI and #YouTube
