River of Time

As the first part of a longer motion picture cycle, 'River of Time' is many things at once: cinematic symphony, epic film poem, and reimagined spiritual autobiography. It is a celebration of Existence and a moving impressionist portrait of contemporary life. Finding transcendence in the daily and mundane, cine-artist Felix van Cleeff interweaves inner life with the Universal, creating a wholly original visionary work with footage collected meticulously over more than four years from a dozen countries in ten different languages. In 'River of Time', memory, dream and quiet revelation coalesce as the lyricism of life itself, and flow together to create a radically new cinematic form.
