David Heslin's year in Cinema - a link to a superb video essay (from Facebook)

Scholar and critic David Heslin writes:

Here’s my latest completed project: a video essay, of sorts, in six chapters, drawing upon the images, sounds and arguments of some of the films I saw for the first time in 2017. Hope you all enjoy it, and that it inspires you to seek out (or revisit) some of the titles featured.
