Assembled

'Assembled' is a slice of that surreal, dreamlike space that exists for late-night bloggers, solitary artists, lovers, and wanderers. Expressed through cameraless animation techniques (etching-on-film and collage), three figures guide us through a not-so-average trip to the movies. Voices confess personal minutiae to whoever is willing to listen, all propelled by an original and hypnotic score (written and performed by Stephen Kelly). Comfort is ultimately sought in mass solitude, and in the unspoken connection of bearing witness to a spectacle.
