The Films of Nathaniel Dorsky
with Dorsky in person
Hours for Jerome: Part I, II (1982), 50 min., silent 24 fps; The Sand (working title), approx. 15 min., silent.
The Sand “is a study of sand and its movements.” Hours for Jerome, Part I and II: “The footage (as in a Book of Hours) was shot from 1966 to 1970 and edited over a two-year period ending in July 1982. This film is in arrangement of images, energies, and illuminations from daily life. These fragments of light revolve around four seasons. Part I is spring through summer; Part II is fall and winter.” Nathaniel Dorsky has been living in San Francisco since 1971 and has been making films in the ‘independent’ tradition since 1964.
