The films of fictional filmmaker Thomas Wright
Shot on 16mm in 1991, just a year before Wright’s death, Low Tide is a gorgeously textured, newly restored film-essay documenting a short walk in coastal South Carolina. Low Tide exemplifies Wright’s approach to filmmaking and his interest in memory, the natural world, and the ways humanity encroaches upon them both.
A companion piece to 'Low Tide: A Newly Restored Work by Thomas Wright', Low Tide DLC tells the story of another of Thomas Wright's lost films: 'Lowlands: Summer '88,' an impressionistic formal study comprised and sound and landscapes and textures made during travels through the United States in the spring of 1989.
The third and final film by Thomas Wright to be restored by Artifacture Laboratories.
