Fight Scene: Take 37
Directed
by: Lindsay Napolitano
Experimental
RT:
19 mins
Based on a collection of
tape-recorded arguments between the artist Lindsay Napolitano
and her partner over a period of several months, 'Fight Scene:
Take 37' mixes performance, video, and documentary in an attempt
to deconstruct the fight scene and deflate it of its intended
aggression. Here we see the couple's domestic arguments
re-enacted and dramatized into public spectacle confusing
gender, pattern and specificity to the point of almost complete
de-contextualization. And still a universal narrative emerges in
this awkward, emotional, and experimental take on the
relationship dialectic.
