Overview
Slowly Turning Narrative includes two projections on a large central rotating screen. One presents images of virtually everything that constitutes life, embracing the broadest sweep from birth to death. The other shows a close-up of Viola’s head incanting “the one who lives,” “the one who acts,” “the one who reads,” and more. As this screen rotates, a mirror on the back comes into view, reflecting the image of the viewer in this video evocation of human existence.

Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's central subject matter, focusing on universal human experiences, perception, and the construction of narratives, inherently lacks a strong political valence. Its likely abstract and contemplative approach champions no specific political ideology or partisan solution, leading to a neutral rating.
This video art piece, 'Slowly Turning Narrative,' does not engage with character diversity or explicit DEI themes in its conceptual or visual structure. Its central human image is a traditional male figure, and the work's abstract exploration of perception and identity does not involve critique or framing of traditional identities in a social context.
Secondary
No information regarding the film's plot, characters, or themes was provided. Consequently, an evaluation of LGBTQ+ portrayal cannot be conducted, resulting in a net impact rating of N/A.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Bill Viola's "Slowly Turning Narrative" is a video art installation, not a narrative film with characters derived from pre-existing source material or history. As such, there are no established characters whose gender could be swapped.
Slowly Turning Narrative (1992) is an original video art installation by Bill Viola. It does not feature characters adapted from prior source material or historical figures with established racial identities, thus the concept of a race swap is not applicable.
