also, see earlier entry on munch, ending with:
i felt as if there were invisible threads between us,
i felt as if invisible threads from her hair still twisted themselves around me,
and when she completely disappeared there over the ocean,

In this film, and throughout his work, Watkins not only challenges the viewer but also other filmmakers to escape the restrictions of accepted cinematic processes: http://bit.ly/bGLvVj
