The Quiet World: Looking More Deeply Into Others’ Eyes

Image...
“The Quiet World” is a remarkable short film, a narrative photo-montage by Blaine Dunkley, which tells a very unusual story using only still photographs. The narrative is based upon Jeffrey McDaniel’s poem, "The Quiet World." In an effort to get people to look into each other’s eyes more, and also to appease the mutes, the government has made a nation-wide “Twitter-like” mandate that allots each person only 167 words per day. No more…only 167 words!

This piece includes a number of beautiful b&w photographs, as well as the unusual and tenderly engaging short film, “The Quiet World.”

    An original moving work, of the language of silence; being a space between the notes, called a rest.

    Hi wayseeker,

    Yes, I agree with you. It's a highly unusual short film, both moving and lovingly peaceful.

    Best wishes to you.
