Dorian Z. Bell (f.k.a. Dank Deleuze) joins me on 8pl8s to discuss Buddhist, zen, and ascetic currents in filmmaking. Slow cinema is a genre of art cinema characterised by a style that is minimalist, observational, and with little or no narrative, and which typically emphasizes long takes. It is sometimes called "Darius Csiky's favorite typa cinema". REAL.
