Faces of the Hand by Tamas Wormser (National Film Board of Canada, 1996)
We use our hands to work, play, communicate;
love, kill, pray, write;
point, punch, caress;
create art and music;
climb mountains, dig in the earth;
and to heal.
and to heal.
A pottery maker:
"I touch the clay, and my fingers can feel the form inside it."
A violin maker:
"Manual labor is becoming so rare that someday people will beg us
to have something made by hand."
