I would like to share with you the 3X3 52 486
it was a great pleasure to take part of this magnificent experimental short film made by Mr.Attila Lorant. From here I would like to express my grateful feelings and thanks to Mr. Gabor Berkes as a Composer and Mr.Attila Lorant for their kind invitation to join them into this wonderful project.

3x3 52 486 is an experimental short film made by Attila Lorant. The film was made with stop motion technique, photographed frame by frame. Approximately 7500 photos from 8 countries (Czech Republic, Egypt, Congo, Hungary, Sweden, Turkey, United States of America and Spain) were used in this production.

This experimental film constitutes a part of a new project - called 3x3 52 486 - of a versatile artist (photographer, writer, director, designer) Attila Lorant. The gist of the project is a 148 pages long photo album, along which an other film was also produced - a 5 minutes long "How to make" documentary. From this project, an exhibition and an iPad application are also coming out soon.

“3x3 is a mosaic, a diary, an encyclopaedia. It is a personal project, a self-confession. It’s a meditative list of all the visual elements, emotions and thoughts that embrace my life. It shows how I lived through my illness, from the loss of hope to regaining it. It reflects my love of solitude and is a quiet reflection on life and passing away. It is a travel diary that does not guide us through geographical locations, but enables us to embark on an inner journey that maps the tiny details of the tangible material world around us, as well as the invisible emotional reality that surrounds us. After years of inhuman hard work my health collapsed. For months I was not sure what to expect of life. Will I ever have another April or Mai in my life? Will I live to have another birthday again? These snapshots constitute all my work of last year. These are photos of a man who is wondering whether these pictures were the last in his life.”
/Attila Lorant/
