Things Said Once is an artistic statement and a tribute to film and cinema that acknowledges its history and our responsibility for its continuity in the present. Written as a poem, the text is built around the concept of cinema as experience in its spatial, temporal, and communitarian or social dimensions.

Things Said Once has also been published in Spanish, French, Persian, Swedish, traditional Chinese, and as a comic.
