SATURDAY, MARCH 7 at 8 PM

“My film is partly travelogue, partly narrative archive through representations of the pacific northwest of found footage that is less found then actually pop cultural indoctrination. travelling i was confronted with images known to me through (post-)cinematic affect: mostly as a teenager of hollywood films i watched over and over again before becoming a filmmaker myself. the pacific northwest opened a mediated path to a younger self and processes of identification through movies that i hadnt uncovered before. the persona i created during travelling and making the film was a naive and emotional version of my teenage self and is thus, also called kristof trakal. this trakal narrates the time-travel o-rama as a journey through a specific region and regional history as a radically private coming of age limbo; making the film, which is part of my ongoing PREPARATIONS cycle about survivalism & preparationism a way to index ideas concerning survivalism, horror films, historism, archive fever and at the same time create a compressed document of the personas practices of travel in sep/oct 2011 from san francisco to vancouver.” FILMMAKER IN ATTENDANCE!
