A meditation on the milieu of elevated threat addressing national identity, gun culture, wilderness, consumption, patriotism and the possibility of personal transcendence. Of particular interest are the ways Americans have come to understand freedom and the increasingly technological reiterations of manifest destiny. Presented on 16mm from the UWM Cinema Arts Archive.
Evolution and extinction from the point of view of rocks and various future others. The geo-biosphere is introduced as a place of evolutionary possibility, where humans disappear but life endures. Originating from two novellas of J.-H. Rosny, film takes up their pluralist vision of evolution, where imagining prehistory is inseparable from envisioning the future. Filmmaker Deborah Stratman in person!
