Synopsis

Belying their apparent stillness, Emily Richardson’s time lapse studies make for compelling and surprisingly eventful viewing: in the case of Redshift (named appropriately, after Hubbles law regarding the different wavelengths of light from stars), the activity is on a galactic scale: the wheeling of the heavens over a ragged line of coast. — Shane Danielsen; 57th Edinburgh International Film Festival 2003, Black Box Activity.
