Outer Space

A woman terrorised by an invisible and aggressive force is also exposed to the audience’s gaze, making her a prisoner in two senses. After she enters a house at night, the rasping of crickets, static and distorted music give way to explosions, screams and garbled voices. In an eruption of panicked subjectivity, her face multiplies across the screen as sprocket holes, an optical soundtrack, and flashes of solarised imagery invade the frame.
