With no plot or characters, this experimental film captures the landscape of a housing project, as well as the varied possibilities arising from its visual impact on the landscape. The reason why I chose a housing project as my subject is because I used to live in one and, even now, am strangely drawn to them. I also suspect that regardless of one’s nationality, the housing project is an archetypal environment universally recognizable to those of my generation. Without using spoken words, this film is a dedication to the housing project and those people of my generation all over the world.
