War and Peace (2006, 35.4MB, 2:34 min.) A new movie from the Sporkworld stable is always welcome. In this piece from Martha Deed we see the qualities that make them so. Warmth, but wry distance too - the world as viewed by a friendly puzzled Martian. No painful frantic pursuit of what currently passes for cool. A well planned, a pondered upon, formal structure. Honesty, and an affection for the both the natural and the human world and then.. a sting in the tail - you ve been thinking perhaps it s all a bit..cosy.. but then you realise you ve been led astray, lulled. Then a koan like opening out to it all.
