Killing Time

About This Movie

Killing Time is kind of a unique piece, you know? It blends the grandiosity of Strauss's Elektra with the mundane struggles of contemporary existence. The way those four characters lip-synch, it really draws you into this tension between their desires and the dullness of everyday life. The four-screen projection adds a layered visual element that enhances the overall atmosphere. It’s not just a film; it’s an experience that plays with sound and imagery in a way that feels almost primal. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to soak in the mood, and the practical effects, or lack thereof, are just as striking in their simplicity. It’s distinct, for sure, a kind of commentary wrapped up in a visual art form.

Unique four-screen projection technique.Explores themes of desire vs. modern mundanity.Combines drama with operatic music for bold effect.
