Discoveries on the Forest Floor 1-3 (2006)
Three Miniature, Illuminated, Heliographic studies of plants, observed and imagined. Fragile leaves and very fine threads of fungus string together in Charlotte Pryce’s three plant studies. Plants and images of the plants, and their envisioned environments, are intertwined. The title is taken from an obscure genre of 17th century painting: Forest Floor Paintings, which placed plants into a 'real' environment as opposed to a vase.

Too much of everything
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
