India Time (1978) poster

Hafif's second feature is another montage of film and voiceover narration. Hafif created it after she travelled to India with Robert Morris where the two visited workshops of local stonemasons. For the soundtrack, the artist drew on entries in her travel diary and other notes. The various textual fragments gradually coalesce around a common thematic core: the critique of a linear construction of time, which is implicitly associated with Western modes of thinking.
