Clipson's filmmaking, and more specifically his fascination with light and water, never fails to transport me to a world of somber bliss
There are moments here that feel entirely reminiscent of Teo Hernandez films, which typically consist of extremely fast camera movements that blend still lights with their surrounding subjects creating an image closer to a painting than a frame of film. Clipson furthers this somewhat 'frantic' style of filmmaking with both the intercutting of beautiful landscape shots and more importantly, the collaboration between musical artists. In the case for Headache, Clipson's frantic camera work perfectly juxtaposes Grouper's gentile vocals and even more gentile production, creating a truly transcendent film
A very rare instance where two masters both bring the best out of each others work
