Lorenzo Gattorna, We Only Have Weekends, 2010

The film chronicles a holiday getaway to Montauk, New York. The traveller surveys enclosing seashores and forested inlands as a fixation upon particular sites slowly develops. Defunct military stations, tangled trees in forests, stairways of private homes, shifting facades of hoodoos, distinguished condominiums, and shallow waters at sunset are revisited throughout the duration of this daytrip. The traveller cautiously sways and comfortably sits among these landscapes, void of local residents or travel companions. It is uncertain if these passages are representative of a newfound expedition or reminiscent of past encounters. The contrast between distancing and dwelling acts only to confuse consequence of this voyage.
