Reel To Reel

This is my feature experimental diary film, also a documentary about the Godfather of American Avant-garde Cinema Jonas Mekas. He was my friend and mentor. 

This is his last interview film and after he passed away in NY and NJ, his home country Lithuania. I filmed all the videos with my iphone, Bolex camera. There are 3 poems in this movie.
