TAKING HER FOR A SPIN

Short video

5 mins Col Betacam SP
© Go Girl Productions 1997

synopsis:

The car, the lust, the road, the roadkill.
The expanse, the fear, the communion,
the return.
One journey by road and by foot.
Male (car) traverses female (land)
and all that's left are bodies (cold).

A meditation on the conquest of
machine over landscape, of nature
as incomprehensible 'other'.
