What Distinguishes the Past (2020)

"The increase of disorder or entropy is what distinguishes the past from the future, giving a direction to time." – Stephen Hawkings

Featuring a soundtrack melted out of a Cyndi Lauper CD, here is an(other) attempt to find a way through the everywhere fog of 2020. Filmed between 2019's Carpathian Mountains, Vilnius punk clubs and Belarusian Independence Day celebrations. This is an overgrown path, a ghost-poem, a companion piece to Jonathan Schwartz's FOR THEM ENDING (2006) – and a memorial for Jonathan, completed two years after his death.
