An Open Paradox

An Open Paradox

Posted by

“An Open Paradox”, conceived by Director Tim Mountain steps inside the minds of ordinary people.

This film is an open paradox and describes the juxtaposition between chaotic reality and imagination. We hear the private narrative of each person as they stop for a moment, whilst the world moves around them. The film is ultimately about hope, should we dare to imagine, as described in the closing lines:

“the carnival of this world will never be understood,
but with imagination afoot,
let yourself look.”

SCRIPT

“I live in a world where
mankind defines the freedom of the birds flying
I live in a world where
vain trying is carried out by the blind
I live in a world where
spirit reminds us of dull dying.

I live in a world where
artistic expression is morale confine
hedonistic confession is divine
uninspired depression is the authentic endline.

mirrors are sober and reflection profound
novels are drunk and false hope abound
originality is finite to the pound.

the carnival of this world
will never be understood
but with imagination afoot,
let yourself look.

Directed by Tim Mountain (UK)
