Digital Resists Finitude

"Exploring the Infinity of Digital Cinema"

What would happen if we'd try to perceive the digital image at a microscopic level? Would we be able to see between or behind the pixels, as if they were atoms in a vacuum? We can escape the frame by crossing its outer borders, but is there also a way out through the image? This film shows that digital images deny us these possibilities: no matter how far one zooms in, the medium will fill in the supposed emptiness, resisting finitude.
