Synopsis
"Hi Steve" and "Dear Robert" exchanged between two filmmakers: Robert Kramer and Stephen Dwoskin. "The Videoletters strip away the formalities that had littered our work and thinking. Through the making of the 'video letters' we started to relearn and re-look.". The Videoletters provide the benefits of reflection -- a lubricant for thought made out of very basic stuff -- the reduction of complexity -- and they cemented a brotherhood. Sadly, Robert's untimely death prevented the continuation of the "video letters" and they remain unfinished and unedited. (S.D.)
