RECORD 001 / SUBJECTS
TWO MEN HAVE BEEN FRIENDS FOR FORTY YEARS.
THIS YEAR THEY BOTH TURN FIFTY.
RELATIONSHIP DURATION: APPROX. 38 YEARS / REMAINING HOURS: UNKNOWN / THE RECORD DOES NOT INDICATE HOW MANY MORE.
RECORD 002
TIMECODE WINDOW: 00:60:00
INVESTIGATIVE PREMISE
ONE HOUR OCCURS TWICE. EVERY CLOCK RECORDS IT AS ONCE.
A restrained investigation into public time, private memory, and the institutional machinery that decides what counts as evidence.
SOURCE: PUBLIC TIMEKEEPING RECORD / UNDER REVIEW
DISCREPANCY FLAGGED 03:17:44
RECORD 003 / METHOD
THEY WILL NOT SAY WHAT IT IS ABOUT.
SO THEY BUILT AN INVESTIGATION INSTEAD.
A CASE FILE.
AN EVIDENCE BOARD.
A FEDERAL BILL.
A LIVE FEED FROM A SECOND STATE.
THE MOST PRECISE CLOCK EVER CONSTRUCTED.
ALL OF IT IN ORDER TO JUSTIFY ONE HOUR IN A ROOM.
APPARATUS STATUS: ELABORATE / LOAD-BEARING
THE MISSING HOUR
AN INVESTIGATION INTO TIME
A LIVING DOCUMENTARY EXPERIMENT

THE PEOPLE WHO REMEMBER IT CANNOT AGREE ON WHEN IT HAPPENED.
SUBJECT 01 MUNICIPAL TIMEKEEPER CLAIMS THE CLOCK DID NOT MOVE
SUBJECT 02 TRANSIT OPERATOR ARRIVED BEFORE DEPARTURE
SUBJECT 03 NIGHT DISPATCH FILED A REPORT WITH NO AUTHOR
IDENTITIES HELD / RELEASE CONTINGENT ON LEGAL REVIEW
RECORD 008
FORMAL STRATEGY / OBSERVATIONAL
NO REENACTMENTS. NO EASY ANSWERS. NO VOICE OF GOD.
The film uses records, clocks, municipal spaces and fractured testimony as evidence. Suspense comes from procedure, not spectacle.
STATIC FRAMES
ARCHIVAL GRAIN
DRY TESTIMONY
CONTROLLED ABSENCE
WHO TAKES
AN HOUR TWICE
A YEAR?
AND WHY HAVE WE ALL AGREED TO LET IT HAPPEN?

RECORD 019 / EVIDENCE PROCESS
RECORD 020 / THE BREAK
THE CASE DOES NOT CRACK ON A REVELATION. IT CRACKS ON AN ACCOUNTING.
FORTY YEARS OF FRIENDSHIP. TWO CITIES. HOURS SPENT IN THE SAME ROOM: CALCULATING.
NOBODY TOOK THE HOUR.
THEY WERE LET GO, ONE AT A TIME.
MINUTE 50 / THE PROCEDURE FAILS.
RECORD 021 / FINAL PROTOCOL
THE RULE OF THIS PRODUCTION HAS BEEN: DAVID REMAINS BEHIND THE CAMERA. CHRIS REMAINS UNDER OBSERVATION.
THE RULE BREAKS ONCE.
THE OBSERVER ENTERS THE FRAME. / HE TURNS THE CLOCK BACK BY HAND. / HE LEAVES.
WHO TAKES THE HOUR? HE DOES. WE ALL DO.
THE CAMERA HOLDS ON CHRIS. THE HOUR IS GONE. NO DIALOGUE IS WRITTEN FOR THIS.
RECORD 022 / THE ARTIFACT
ONE HOUR OCCURS TWICE. EVERY CLOCK RECORDS IT AS ONCE.
WE ARE RECORDING BOTH.
TWO COMPLETE SIXTY-MINUTE TAKES. THE COUNTRY LOGS ONE. WE LOG BOTH.
WE WILL ONLY EVER RELEASE THE SECOND.
THE FIRST HOUR — A COMPLETE RECORD OF AN HOUR THAT OFFICIALLY DID NOT HAPPEN — WILL BE SCREENED EXACTLY ONCE. ONE NIGHT. PRESENTED BY THE INVESTIGATOR. THEN NEVER AGAIN.
THE TITLE IS NOT A METAPHOR. THE FILM HAS A MISSING HOUR.
