Graham Foy’s statement:
“The project is something like a filmmaker’s sketchbook, drawing inspiration from photography and photobooks as much as cinema and deleted scenes on Blu-ray special features. A photograph can become meaningful simply because someone looked closely enough to notice something. Encounters tries to extend that experience through time.
“Each episode is an experiment in character, performance, atmosphere, sound and observation. Across the series, the films are connected less by narrative than by an attention to human behavior, private persistence, and the mysterious pull of being immersed in another person’s experience for a moment in time.”
