Glass Jars
Alec Soth, 2009, US, video, 6'
An American family is arrested for several child abuses. The victims wrote their experiences on notes, put them in glass jars, and buried them. Recently the case was discovered, and the family arrested. Alec Soth, freelance journalist, reports of his quest for the jars and the story behind it. He makes use of a beautiful black and white photography, that reminds strongly of Marker’s La Jetée.
