Pat O'Neill has been a beacon of classic avant-garde film on the West Coast since the 1960s. He has developed into a master of analogue image manipulation. With the digital tour de force of Where the Chocolate Mountains he has reinvented himself whilst remaining loyal to his strategy of layering images to the extent that they can never be equivocal. The meditatively slow, surround soundtrack is a densely woven tapestry of samples from 78 RPM records and obscure films. O'Neill is also a sculptor, collagist and installation maker. This hallucinatory trip is every bit as dependent on the viewer's associative capacity. (International Film Festival Rotterdam)
