Variations on a Cellophane Wrapper

David Rimmer's avant-garde classic takes a single film fragment of a factory worker unraveling a sheet of cellophane, and alters it through a mesmerizing series of spectral apparitions and alchemical and sonic permutations. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2013.
