Jerome Hill, Maud Oakes

Through cinema, time collapses. Jerome Hill’s life unfolded alongside cinema’s early decades and much of the 20th century. By weaving fragments of Hill’s surreal, hand‑painted and documentary work with the James J. Hill family’s home movies, the film creates a portrait that serves as an artistic documentary of Hill and offers a meditation on the seventh art.
