On November 19, 2006, I shot "The Leaves", my entry in IFCO's Fall 2006 16mm Dogme Challenge. I got one roll of 16mm 7222 black and white negative film, a Bolex camera and had 24 hours to make a film within the following constraints: - You may only use available light. - You may do only in-camera editing. - You may not do any post-production work whatsoever (no editing, no sound, no cuts, no dissolves, etc.) - You must show the following credits at some point in your film: 1. the words: “Fall 2006 IFCO Dogme Challenge ”; 2. your name; 3. the film title. *The Leaves* had its first screening at IFCO's Holiday party on December 14, 2006 at the Mercury Lounge.
