Still Orangutans ***
Gustavo Spolidoro, 2008
Brazil
@ Pacific Place

At first disorienting, but the accumulating intensity of the contiguous vignettes builds much like a rapid succession of drinks, eventually unleashing its full effect, here pent up until the last moment. Probably less of a city symphony than a catalogue of the wildness of the human spirit, a lingering sub-humanity referred to in the title. Maybe the best thing I've seen this year.
