Starring McKenzie Wark and Julie Wernersbach

Synopsis

Pairing an original text by philosopher McKenzie Wark (Hacker Manifesto, Raving) with slowly-strobing orange-hued images of her body and domestic life, framed by techno and the most stripped-down version of the rave’s aesthetics, this semi-documentary delicately merges the history of the left with the history of Wark's body as laid bare before the camera. We see the marks of her gender transition and her life story as she speaks of love and lost futures, even as both her own death and the death of the left hover just out of frame. A love story.
