The plot is simple. After his girlfriend leaves him, filmmaker Ross McElwee takes a voyage along the original route followed by General William Sherman - but rather than cutting a swath of destruction designed to force the Confederate South into submission, as Sherman did, McElwee searches for love, camera in hand, training his lens with phallic resolve on every accessible woman he meets.

English The film diary will definitely not be my cup of tea, at least not in this execution. I can't help it, but there was nothing about that movie that I enjoyed, maybe just the spontaneity of the individual actors, which is not often seen. It oozed relaxation, but that seems to me too little for a film that should be groundbreaking as a film diary. ()
