Description:

Divided into sections with poetic title cards, this single-channel video by Susi Milne comprises segments of candid, home-movie-like footage of Milne and the interior of Western Front, as well as various clips from commercials and movies, including extended footage of Bette Davis, and found footage of an industrial loom. A soundtrack of excerpts from various rap and rock songs by artists such as Run-DMC accompanies the visual elements.  

Video documentation is available upon request.
