Counting
In 15 linked chapters, Counting merges city symphony, diary film, and personal/political essay to create a vivid portrait of contemporary life. Shot in locations ranging from Russia to Istanbul to New York, its subjects range from Moscow street theater to NSA spying to the dismantling of Brooklyn landmarks. Cohen describes his work as “life-drawing” in which free observation of uncontrollable events plays a crucial role in his work. With 30 years of exploring documentary making as a path of open inquiry, Cohen delivers what is perhaps his most personal reckoning.
