You can hear the sound of my Bolex rolling - that roll of film is at my place in Paris...someday I will enjoy a treasure-hunt through my EU gear and develop and post this 16mm footage also :) If you are interested in using this footage for a creative project, please write me by email or message in the comments below and I will get back to you with pricing & contract details. I am flexible to work with and enjoy both collaborations and offering my artistic work for other artists to use if they are so inspired (with proper credit and prior agreement worked out beforehand :) Wishing you a wonderful day ! I hope you enjoy this film 🦋 www.c-pace.net/about © Catherine Anne Pace 2024 Editorial Notes: E501B799 90F4 4E70 9EF6 46D40C12C558
