In the form of the letter X (1985)

The second film of the series Narratives of Egypt (1984-87). In the form of the letter 'X' is a signature – a filmic equivalent of Cartmell's name (which is reduced by exhaustive transcription to a simple X). X is the mark of those who cannot write, or who do not know their own names. Photographed over time against a backdrop of the Canadian Shield, X shows Cartmell's son Sam running in slow motion towards the camera, and, in the film's second half, away from it. The shape/structure of the movie is chiasmatic, part of the old avant-garde dream of creating movies that could be run backwards and forwards. The movie is in two parts that form an X.
