Beyond its technical definition 'Diegetic' sound is associated with a particular type of film-making. a deceptively simple way of cutting together images and sound that prioritises human stories over the spectacular and the 'Monoform'.
The constant use of rapid editing in an endless barrage of visual and audio information in a mono-linear push, arbitrarily constructed, prevents any inclusion of the audience into the material and works in keeping viewers from sharing or engaging in the process. We oppose this way of making film as we oppose this way of seeing the world in which we live.
We are not a production company but we make films.
We are not a movement but we have principles.
We are rats in the palace. We have keen senses to observe life.
And we are very hard to kill.
