FILM

A pathetic movie pitch set in Berlin slips into the murkiness of memory, and histories best forgotten or purposely ignored. Beautiful black and white still images of coastal New Hampshire are being juxtaposed with a voiceover that toys with the conventions of a corporate powerpoint presentation and playfully explores the many meanings of the word ‘pitch’, sonic and otherwise. Wilkins reflects upon the production process’ influence on the eventual (non-) product, the film world in the Amazon age, a vanished TV series from the 1920s, urban violence and racism and the very idea of filmic memory.
