MAN WALKING
Charley CaseIn ‘(Man walking)’ nothing but the feet and legs of a man are shown, inexhaustibly walking through the desert, mud, rivers, over rocks and mountains, asphalt and sidewalks and over a city rooftop, where he ultimately loses his balance and drops down to the ground.

Then he turns around and goes back to the end of the hall, now taking bigger steps. He repeats his route through the corridor, counting the distances on the walls. He measures up the hallway floor with a long stick...
