It is our pleasure to present Derick Crucius, an independent filmmaker based in New Jersey whose work primarily focuses on memory and the poetic expression of everyday life. Using 16mm film and digital video his work often features experimentation with light, sound, and the materiality of the medium.

His films have screened at multiple festivals and cinemas around the world and now a unique opportunity to be shown for you, visitor to Estilo Wei.

 

Please find below a link to interview questions that Derick was kind enough to answer with us and below that a selection of his short films ready to play. Remember, SOUND ON (headphones preferable). We found these pieces to be entrancing, nostalgia-driven meditations on the fragility of the sentimental mind along immersive journeys of the “routine.” Our hope is you will find them as captivating as we did. Enjoy!
