Englisch For those who have longed to see various structural and other experimental films, focusing through long silent shots on the glow of spotlights, on hitherto unseen fragments of the world and consciousness, and in long multilingual reflections (from soundtracks of found footage to the author's own voice-overs or recitations, etc.), studying imperceptible discourses, connected into one film, a structural film permeated with subjectivity but not with plot - then go and watch Him and Me. It is the author's autobiographical reflection on his own life and American past, functioning simultaneously as a window into the present and generally into human life, and as a window into the pure material presence of objects captured by the camera. A certain pathos of memories and their images, merging with current images, will then permeate even non-American viewers who did not experience the past brought into the present (i.e., the 1980s). ()
