Experimental short / 2026
Eighteen Miles a Second
A cinematic poem about the unseen motion that carries us through existence, and the continuous now we inhabit.
The film
How far have you traveled while reading this?
We travel roughly eighteen miles every second, passengers on a cosmic river we cannot see. Eighteen Miles a Second translates that fact into a meditative journey through time, motion, and the nature of reality.
Based on Michael Galileo’s book Where Time Comes From: A Handbook for Humans. An experimental short film by David Levine Bramante / CinemaMachina.
Submitted to the 2026 Sundance Film Festival. See the festival record ↗
