The New World

Overview
Mixing Super 8 and phone footage 'The New World' expands the short format of previous works in a sinuous narrative of 23 minutes. Its longhand structure explores the nature of thought and reflection, trauma and memory through performance and storytelling. Yet the story is a series of dead ends and inconclusive musings, part film noir and part fairy tale its optimism is cut with a deep nostalgia that views the 20th century from the vantage point of the 21st . "She..all the waitresses, all the smoking women looking out windows. Just a slippery history full of the broken puppetry of her narrators" – Eileen Myles
