BARTLEBY'S CONSTELLATION
STEREO, 23MIN, DVCAM, 2007
The City Hall of Barcelona asked Andrés Duque to make a film on space, and Bartleby's Constellation is that film. A film about time and space travelers, literature (from Stevenson to Bradbury), cinephilia, authentic book-lovers, and those whose obsessions have driven them crazy. What can we find in the backyard of modernist science fiction?
