Trains are for Dreaming Jennifer Reeves, 2009

Eight super8 film years condensed into seven eyepopping minutes. A dreamer moves through landscapes to far seas over tracks, winding roads, skies and waters a journey of flight and fancy. The animals are watching, the chicks are chasing sunsets and dancing with sharks. A 98year old grandmother reflects on life, while the 38year old director looks back on her own. Dedicated to my late grandmother and to my late father, whose trumpet playing and voice enter the freeassociative collage soundtrack. Jennifer Reeves
