Walsed

Walsed is a film study on the experimental classic “Visión fantástica” by Eugène Deslaw. Where Deslaw negativized, I negate —while recovering the original positive images—, drastically reducing the film’s 60 minutes’ length and reversing the images in space and time. I kept the same soundtrack, although equally compressed into 3 minutes’ length and divided into two channels: one, in the original direction; the other one, reversed. This negation of a negation is far from being an acceptation: the folk images and songs from a fascist country, underlying the NO-DO shots touched up by Deslaw, are negated; the filmmaker’s intentions when negativizing/negating them are understood; but, seeing that the effort is not enough, this film goes beyond his proposal on the way to total destruction. - Alberte Pagán
