Overview
While composed of pure/blank color frames (often “flickering”), this is not a “Structural Film”; there’s no predetermined overall structure to the work (which is, anyway, only “chapter one” of a sort of “abstract novel” in progress, a novel which can become extremely lengthy in its projected series of chapters, a novel with a beginning, a middle but no preconceived ending). The film moves from “episodes” of different lengths and moods/rhythms/melodies, without any apparent cause-effect, like life itself, which passes on (“passare” – to pass, to pass on) from one unpredictable event/emotion to another. Each ‘episode’ is based upon some feeling, event or place and is aesthetically resolved; but there are no links from one episode to another. The episodes may be as short as one second or as long as ten minutes; each is my subjective interpretation of actual incidents, places, feelings, etc. into the terms of pure temporal color. Everything is in actual chronological order.

Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
The film's highly abstract, experimental, and structuralist nature, focusing on the materiality of film and perception, precludes any discernible political messaging or bias.
The film, an experimental work, does not feature traditional characters or a narrative. As such, it does not engage with casting diversity, the framing of traditional identities, or explicit DEI themes within its content.
Secondary
Paul Sharits' 'Passare I (Italia)' is an abstract experimental film focused on visual and auditory elements. It does not contain narrative, characters, or explicit thematic content, and therefore, no LGBTQ+ characters or themes are present for evaluation.
Venetian Blind is an abstract experimental film by Fred Worden, primarily exploring light, shadow, and sound. It lacks a narrative structure and does not feature any identifiable characters or themes related to transsexual identity, resulting in no portrayal to assess.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Paul Sharits's "Passare I (Italia)" is an experimental film without traditional narrative or characters derived from pre-existing source material or history. Therefore, there are no established characters whose gender could be swapped.
Passare I (Italia) is an experimental, non-narrative film by Paul Sharits. It does not feature characters with established canonical or historical races from source material, making a race swap inapplicable by definition.
