Synopsis
Seemingly at random, the wings and other bits of moths and insects move rapidly across the screen. Most are brown or sepia; up close, we can see patterns within wings, similar to the veins in a leaf. Sometimes the images look like paper cutouts, like Matisse. Green objects occasionally appear. Most wings are translucent. The technique makes them appear to be stuck directly to the film.
Mothlight (1963) is a 4 min animation short film by Stan Brakhage. Seemingly at random, the wings and other bits of moths and insects move rapidly across the screen.
