    • @moonti6820
      @moonti6820 4 ปีที่แล้ว +27

      So I don't know if its deliberate or not but "grotesque line" makes a really good play on word (in french at least). "Grotte" means "cave, cavern" in french and adding the suffix "-esque" to a word makes it an adjective. So here the line is "grotesque" as "weird, bizarre" and it's "grottesque" as in "cave-like".

    Adam, great job. I watch your films with admiration. However, I have a word for your companions Pavel Klement, Adam Ligocki and Laco Korbel. When Adam climbs (9:20) or shows something on the wall (13:20), his face is not the most important thing, but his feet and hands, I guess. With a camera on a gimbal, you can always squat and rec something from a bit lower perspective (11:30), am I wrong? ;) All the best!
