General Orders No. 9 (Trailer)

Awarded for its visionary cinematography, GENERAL ORDERS No. 9 breaks from the constraints of the documentary form as it contemplates the signs of loss and change in the American South.

The stunning culmination of over eleven years of work from first time writer-director Robert Persons, GENERAL ORDERS No. 9 marries experimental filmmaking with an accessible, naturalist sensibility to tell the epic story of the clash between nature and man's progress, and reaches a bittersweet reconciliation all its own.

Told entirely with images, poetry, and music, GENERAL ORDERS No. 9 is unlike any film you have ever seen. A story of maps, dreams, and prayers, it is one last trip down the rabbit hole before it's paved over.

@fanvidd I think that when a trailer doesn't give away the entire movie is becoming a lost art. A lot of documentaries are biased if you pay attention. Don't judge a movie till you've seen it.

I personally thought it was beautiful.

Wtf is this?!?!? It has nothing to do with general order number nine. or rabbits huh???!!!????

[fanvidd]

this trailer told very little about what the movie is about >_< and whatever it is... some kind of loss/deterioration through time/evolution it seems biased and misleading... go to that place now, its probably sunny and people are pretty happy stuffing their faces (hey its america), just the fact that its always cloudy in the movie, says something about the movie...

DONT JUDGE A MOVIE BY ITS COVER!!

[wannabef]

The image on the poster is of Bre'er Rabbit, and should give you a hint as to the content of the film. This is an absolutely brilliant piece of cinema that will influence filmmakers for generations.
