Six Minutes in a Hardware Store

No narration, no music. Just a man looking for the right screw.

No narration. No music. No conclusion.

Six minutes of a man in a narrow aisle looking for a screw that is one-eighth of an inch longer than the one he has.

I made this because I wanted to see whether a camera could hold attention with nothing but an ordinary problem and no payoff. It mostly can. Watch it once; the second time is a different film.

The staff member is patient. The man is not.
