A Walk Through H: The Reincarnation of an Ornithologist
Peter Greenaway 1978 UK
A narrator recounts the 92 maps he was given in order to find reincarnation.
A series of maps recorded with a keen, roaming camera, capturing all the fascinations of a map's minutae - for all their recurring simplicity, their various clashes of colour, shape, size and visual density makes for a fascinating 40 minutes or so, intercut with footage of birds, as the narrator walks his way through "H" (heaven or hell?) and into his next life.
