...but i’ll be BACK before you’re DONE
Director: Trasparente (Federico Montaresi)
Country of Origin: Italy
US PREMIERE
Synopsis: "...but I’ll be BACK before you are DONE is a found footage video exploring the pure essence of destructive energy. A relentless stream of over 500 explosions, sourced from cartoons, artificial intelligence, video games, films, online archives, and war footage, unfolds in a frantic and chaotic montage. The obsessive repetition of detonations dissolves
the boundaries between reality and simulation, turning the
video into an extreme sensory experience. The work reflects on media manipulation and the spectacularization of violence, subjecting the viewer to a perceptual overload that defies linear interpretation."
