(1) Illustration for the poster of the film by Truls Krane Meby, who explores the impact of digital images: »The Weight of Sight is a playful and deeply personal essay where director Truls Krane Meby, through a massive archive of his own material - anything from DV-tapes to 35mm - explores the last 20 years of digital development - how it’s influenced the images we make, and our bodies. What kind of images do we get of the world now that everyone is a photographer, and what does it do with how we unfold our identities? How has the internet both captured and freed us? And will Truls even dare to show this film?« (words from the homepage of the director).
