For what would prove to be his final film, Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami gave himself a challenge: to create a dialogue between his work as a filmmaker and his work as a photographer, bridging the two art forms to which he had dedicated his life. Setting out to reconstruct the moments immediately before and after a photograph is taken, Kiarostami selected twenty-four still images—most of them stark landscapes inhabited only by foraging birds and other wildlife—and digitally animated each one into its own subtly evolving four-and-a-half-minute vignette, creating a series of poignant studies in movement, perception, and time. A sustained meditation on the process of image making, 24 Frames is a graceful and elegiac farewell from one of the giants of world cinema. (Criterion)

24 mouvements et coups de zoom d'images animées vivantes, ou de plans fixes. Les animaux et les individus sont placés principalement dans des environnements naturels de prairies et de côtes, secoués par des conditions météorologiques diversifiées. Chaque image est caractéristique, plutôt de couleur grise à plus sombre. Pas de soleil éclatant. Kiarostami ajoute de l'espace et du temps aux moments que les peintres capturent en un instant. Le cadre 21 est clairement le meilleur pour moi.
