Derin Seale

In ‘The Eleven O’Clock’, the short film that nabbed Derin Seale an Academy Award nomination, a psychiatric patient who thinks he’s a psychiatrist watches his whole world slip away from under his feet like it’s made of smoke. That about sums up Seale’s work, which captures the precise moment that the known becomes the unknown; that life itself becomes new, and strange, and beautiful, all over again.
