Balancing Point. "A short film that is played entirely in reverse and involves the "reverse destruction" of balanced rock sculptures. There is one character in the movie that appears to magically create these sculptures. Although the film is played in reverse it appears as the man who is doing his magic is going forwards in time." You can see stills from the film, as well as the full Quicktime movie.

  • This is brilliant - was on mefi last week. I mean, it's a simple concept and not new by any means, but I really think they caught it all well and didn't go over the top. A nice 5 or so minute piece of entertainment!
  • It is really well done, very impish. Made me want to go out and play in a pile of rocks.
  • Just shows a broken QT icon for me. Drat. (Ahh.. after some sluthing, I see the video's host's account has been suspended)
  • Oops.. posted the redirected link, not the original.
  • Ah, poor thing was BoingBoinged. Well, um, so much for that.
  • Not sure if he rehosted it or just solved the problem, but it's back up now on iFilm.
