All Vows
2013. USA. Directed by Bill Morrison. Music by Michael Gordon. “All Vows” is an English translation of “Kol Nidre,” a Yom Kippur incantation that nullifies any future vows made without intention. The film uses archival film scenes to show a dissolving historic document that represents an unknowable future. 10 min.
