Afganistán

Afghanistan – touch down in flight

Londres

A short film by Moritz Oberholzer. Very simple but beautifully executed. I liked the mix of shots that are simply unusual or interesting (the old man spitting, the girl jumping) with those that seem to whisper little stories to your mind (the three blind men, the couple sitting on separate benches, the kid folling on his knees).

My favourites, the pidgeon ones. They are jokes themselves. One will land on a concrete tower, the tree is just a reflection. The other just waits there under the label of "Poultry".

The familiar places also made the experience more enjoyable.
