Quote:
"The idea of including 'parallax' came from my desire to integrate cinematic elements with the subject of the work. The split-screen device employed by the film is meant both to comment on the technical mechanism of film and to highlight the shift in meaning or double interpretation sometimes associated with communication between two people."
