Struggling with relationships
I could go around finding all sort of arguments for justifying my problems with this 3rd assignment but if I am to be honest with me, I must, very loudly, admit that the one reason for struggling with it, is simply not having a clear idea of what I want to say.
I went to a bar to take photos of people dancing and drinking late at night. It may or may not show in the photos but, those who have known me through my teens and early twenties, see right away that the story talks much more about my fears than about anything else in the frame.
Now that I’ve just written it down, I realise that perhaps that’s a good enough reason to get the story done. Isn’t it that very often the very best documentaries are those about a very personal experience taken to a general context?
“Pleasures and Terrors of Kissing” by James Friedman is one of such great stories.
