Event Description
An experimental documentary that contemplates the signs of loss and change in the American South as potent metaphors of personal and collective destiny.
Some eleven years in the making, Robert Persons’ mesmerizing film essay has drawn comparisons to the work of Terrence Malick. It is an easy correlative to draw, but Person’s visionary film has a rare spirit and ravishing beauty all its own.
Part ode to a vanishing culture, part prose poem, and possessing an almost religious devotion to the holy beauty of the planet, General Orders No. 9, breaks with conventional documentary form to tread new ground.
