Search for the Mothman
"Search For The Mothman" is a documentary that explores the unusual disturbances, odd sightings, bizarre occurrences, and strange eyewitness reports connected to a creature known as the "Mothman" (first sighted in the Point Pleasant, West Virginia area in the sixties). Strangely, the sightings and disturbances seemed to reach a peak with several area residents sharing the same nightmare of a river disaster. On December 15, 1967, the Silver Bridge - spanning the Ohio River between Point Pleasant and Gallipolis, Ohio - collapsed into the frigid water (sending 46 people to their deaths). Many of those who lost their lives had reported seeing the Mothman. Perhaps most disturbing, there were no reported sightings after the bridge accident.
From the archive
Noam Shers experimental film "The Search" is a minimalist exploration of non-photorealistic rendering, using the "NPR Quake" engine modification to give it its hand-drawn look. The piece is not narrative-oriented and was Shers first public attempt at machinima. It placed third in TechTV Israel's short film contest.
