Drill

About This Movie

So, 'Drill' is this interesting documentary by Hito Steyerl, showcasing her installation at the Armory. The way she plays with the space, especially the Wade Thompson Drill Hall, it’s like a dialogue between the historical context and contemporary art. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to really soak in the atmosphere of both the exhibition and the building itself. Steyerl’s blend of pre-existing works alongside new pieces creates this tension that digs into themes of militarization and the art world. It’s not just about visuals; there’s a cerebral quality to how she pushes viewers to think critically about these subjects. Definitely feels like a thoughtful experience rather than just a surface-level documentary.
