       ADRIFT
       Why Watch? Simon Christen woke up at 5am so that you don’t have
       to. He woke up at 5am a lot, for two years, trying to catch the
       most impressive moments of early morning fog in the Marin
       Headlands north of San Francisco. The result of all that
       admirable early rising is this short, the most impressive shots
       of Christen’s long-term project seamlessly edited together into
       four minutes of breathtaking mist.
       Adrift is a film of careful counterpoint. The Golden Gate Bridge
       is front and center, of course, standing tall above the bay with
       an air of steadfast grandeur. Yet the star is the fog itself,
       and through it the passage of time. Christen matches the
       rushing, time-lapsed sweeping of clouds across San Francisco Bay
       with an ambient, contemplative track from Jimmy LaValle, of The
       Album Leaf. It feels like waking up at the crack of dawn, with
       all of the gorgeous purples in the sky and none of the
       irritating sleep in your eyes.
       What Will It Cost? About 4 minutes.
