The Apology Line is a short, fictional, documentary about people who ring a number and apologise for something. It is a poetic and experimental documentary.
There is a series of disconnected images which hold no direct relevance to the audio track, although they do indirectly relate.
The overall tone of the piece is quite emotional. The apologies vary from a crying man apologising to his now separated wife, to a teenage girl claiming she has cheated on her boyfriend and she doesn't care. There is a sense of hysteria in one of the phone-calls as a women apologises for hiding her disability.
I really like the concept of the documentary as it is something I have never seen before.
The voices aren't clear, and are sometimes hard to understand. However, it is obvious why they have done that.
