Transfer of Modulation

Directed by Piero Bargellini

"Trasferimento" takes up the erotic theme of 8mm films and manipulates it using development techniques studied in early 16mm cinema. The regression that emerged only later in the re-reading of Macrozoom is here contemporary with the filming itself, which is in fact a re-interpretation of other cinematic material . The film’s process consists precisely in transferring, through technique, certain expired yet traumatic data into existence. The sexual act is explicit, and the material itself is a film. He seems concerned with reconnecting to the moment of his own conception, and here he is very close to it. (M. Bacigalupo)
