Summaries

The first film in Daniel Kremer's Small Gauge Trilogy, three experimental narrative features for those with an open mind about what cinema can be. Jerry, an ambulance-chasing lawyer (and 8mm film hobbyist), lapses into a deep depression after he is scammed out of his retirement savings. His intense love of W.C. Fields, of whom he does impersonations, and his commitment to both his mixed-up half-sister Karen (who is going deaf and learning sign language) is the only thing keeping him from suicide. Filmmaker Daniel Kremer's reflection on (and response to) Kieslowski's Camera Buff, a.k.a. Amator (1979).—Bricolage Films
