Waterfall
Arthur Cantrill, Corinne Cantrill, 1984, AU, 16mm, 17'

At Uluru is pre­ce­ded by Waterfall, ano­ther enig­ma­tic stu­dy of a major Australian land­mark – this time, Mackenzie Falls in the Grampians, Victoria. One of the most vibrant of the Cantrills’ three-colour sepa­ra­ti­on films, Waterfall reflects an inte­rest in the begin­nings of colou­ri­sed pho­to­grap­hic pro­duc­ti­on and moti­on-pic­tu­re film. As in their Uluru films, the film­ma­kers set out to dis­co­ver sour­ces and acquain­tan­ces for a cine­ma­tic prac­ti­ce in the phy­si­cal, mys­te­rious world.
