Wonderful Documentaries

24 Hours on Craigslist
Tea Time

Two films with superficial and deeper connections.

Firstly they are great documentaries which explore human stories, behaviours, desires and the way they enact them. They both start with a wide range of 'characters' and allow the stars to emerge as the film roll on.

But, they also both explore from the point of a central hub, and follow the connections that emanate from and cross through that hub. They are both about society, networked-ness and the importance to humanity.
And most importantly, they both let the story emerge naturally - and allow the viewer to understand and feel the implications for themselves.

Enjoy
