Maximilian Le Cain (born 1978) has made more than forty short and medium-length films and videos over the past decade. He is also a film critic whose writings have appeared in a broad range of international film hournals, most notably Senses of Cinema, an in several books, He is editor of Cork Jilm Centre’s online experimental film magazine Experimental Conversations. He has written of his always formally experimental work:
My culture is cinema, including experimental film. THere is cinema and 
what is called ‘reality’. There is the body, mine in this instance, and then there is the night. There are limits, failures and overwhelming sensations. Sound image, silence: oblivion It is at the obscure intersection of all these that i jot down my audio-visual sketches. Perhap a bif to reconcile these elements? More likely, simply a place to exist with accuracy. Movement on the cusp of exhaustion and decay, creation in a time when every film has been made. But the energy persists and the images keep moving, moving in darkness, ceaselessly linking the body and the night in a multitude of shifting rhythms.
