Embodied time

William Kentridge, Felix in Exile, 1994. It is a film made through stop motion animation. Kentridge draws a cell with chalk takes a picture, then he erases the drawing and draws the next cell on the same paper. As a result the previous image is still slightly visible which makes the viewer acutely aware of the passage of time.
