Christopher Petit | UK | 1998 | 11' | | IFFR 1999

After The Falconer (see there) and Radio On (Remix) (see above) Petit made a short, radical trip through the memory of television. A digital experiment in which disposable images are manipulated in such a way that they get a meaning after all. In the form of a fake documentary, Petit undermines television’s claim to consensus.
