Mass or Monument for a Capitalist Society

Mass was made during Sjöströms years at the film department of the Royal College of Art in cooperation with the London Filmmakers Coop Random or staged shots of people and settings in urban London are arranged and abstracted doubleexposed and solarized The result is a dense texture filled with layers and associative dimensions Mass is a film attempting to convey by strictly filmic means the coopedup feeling of the individual in the grey mass of the city The absurd concrete city landscape is visualized through the unspoilt and naked eye of the camera in a concentrated mosaic of images and sound
