Don’t Blink – Robert Frank

The life and career of Robert Frank, both as a photographer and filmmaker, are so closely connected that they are essentially one. His extensive journey, from the creation of “The Americans” in 1958 to his current work, is deeply embedded in his impressive collection of artistic expressions. Since the early 1990s, Frank has collaborated with the talented editor Laura Israel on his films and videos, maintaining a personal touch and capturing the initial spark between the camera and its subjects. “Don’t Blink” is Israel’s sympathetic portrayal of her friend and collaborator. It is a vibrant collage of images, sounds, memories, profound losses, and friendships, offering a swift and fleeting glimpse into the life of the Swiss-born artist who reinvented himself in the American style and continues to thrive on his own terms at the age of 90.
