The story

What Is Plumb Line About?

The premise of Plumb Line without spoilers.

The film traces the breakup of a couple by translating their intimacy into visual and aural parallels. Schneemann disassembles and recombines the lovers’ gestures in a rapid montage of disruptive variations: 8 mm footage is blown up to 16 mm, images pause, frames repeat and melt away, culminating in the print igniting and consuming itself. The soundtrack is produced by Carolee Schneemann.
