The Chronology of Water

Read my review of Kristin Stewart's debut feature film, The Chronology of Water, at CultBytes.

"...two auteurs...who each dispense with narrative convention to create forms with their material rather than entrap the story within expectations. The resistance to convention on both sides of this book is what makes this film indelible despite being grounded in harrowing experiences. Neither the book nor the film are chronological and so the film paces the pliability of self and memory through cinematic strategies borrowed directly from experimental cinema."
