As the collective’s reputation grew, so did its ambitions. Feature-length works preserved the Foundry’s intimacy while expanding scope. One landmark film, The Ledger of Small Things, traced a decade in the life of a municipal clerk whose ledger recorded both municipal ordinances and private consolations. The film’s slow, repeated framings — lingering on hands, on the ledger’s margins, on the clerk’s evening walks — turned bureaucratic routine into a repository of communal tenderness. Critics called it austere; residents called it true.
