The Five Obstructions

1. Jørgen Leth handles most of the obstructions fairly well, with the exception of the second one, which he only partially completes.

2. I think the obstructions can be helpful in making creative work, because it gives the creator some guidelines that they must create within, thus giving direction to their ideas.

3. I think that this film reminded me a lot of being in a college art program, where most projects have set guidelines and instructions. Although they may seem limiting, I think they help me focus my ideas.
