"Trasferimento" takes up the erotic theme of 8mm films and manipulates it using development techniques studied in early 16mm cinema. The regression that emerged only later in the re-reading of Macrozoom is here contemporary with the filming itself, which is in fact a re-interpretation of other cinematic material . The film’s process consists precisely in transferring, through technique, certain expired yet traumatic data into existence. The sexual act is explicit, and the material itself is a film. He seems concerned with reconnecting to the moment of his own conception, and here he is very close to it. (M. Bacigalupo)
