Four hours compressed into seven minutes, which is the wrong ratio for the subject but the right one for a film. She does not speak much while drawing.

## What is in it

1. 00:45 Setting up: paper, weights, and three inks.
2. 02:20 The first inlet, at real speed.
3. 04:30 A mistake, and what she does about it.
4. 06:10 The finished stretch, and what she left out.

## Made with

- One overhead rig
- A 50mm lens
- No artificial light at all

Not from this film. It is the wall outside her window.

She has since told me the coastline is wrong by about forty metres, and that this is fine.
