Living Inside is this raw, almost diary-like exploration of a teenager's psyche through the lens of isolation. It's striking how Benning captures that sense of confinement with her camera, blending the mundane with the surreal. The editing feels disjointed, but in a way that enhances the feeling of being trapped in one's own mind. The rough quality of the tape adds an authenticity, a visceral texture that makes you feel like you're stepping into her chaotic world. It's a film that really leans into the emotional landscape of adolescence, making the viewer grapple with the themes of identity and solitude.
Living Inside has become a bit of a curiosity for collectors, especially since the director remains unknown, adding an air of mystery. The film's original format is relatively scarce, often found only on VHS or obscure digital releases. Many collectors are drawn to its unique blend of personal narrative and experimental style, making it a distinctive piece within the landscape of late '80s indie films.
