D.O.A./Remake/Remodel 3 minutes 2005

Originally made for Splice This Super 8 Festival's Remake programme; D.O.A./Remake/Remodel references film noir and analyses media in a contemporary digital landscape. The protagonist and his voice-over spend a final 24 hours dazedly and angrily revisiting classic railroad tracks and tunnels. This Super 8 and video hybrid references both a 1949 film noir classic and an early Roxy Music Song. Who did poison the narrator-a bad trick, a car thief, or just perhaps the entire rotten system? And what or who is CPA 5938?
