Aftermath

A fourpart biopic that narrates moments from the lives of Fats Waller Jackson Pollock Janieta Eyre and Frida Khalo This quartet of hauntologies reframes the cruel reductions of biography to focus on death and doubles Repurposing archival texts the diaries of Khalo the testimonies of Wallers kin and familiars as audiovisual graffiti old voices are cropped and replayed as intertitles or voiceover fragments lending a historic charge to images that dream across the present
