Кино 4MA Моцна накурка / Hello Dankness Kyiv 2023-10-23 18:00:00

Composed entirely of hundreds of film samples, Hello Dankness It is a political fable that bears witness to the psychotropic spectacle of American politics from 2016 to 2021, and the mythologies and lore that took root around it. Taking form as a suburban stoner musical, the film follows a neighborhood through these years as consensus reality disintegrates into conspiracies and other contagions. Part political satire, zombie apocalypse, and Greek tragedy, the work is also informed by the encrypted memetics of contemporary internet culture. It is a rogue retelling of history in which hotdogs debate the culture wars, trashcans preach QAnon, zombies rally for revolution, and real events are refashioned as Broadway bangers from Cats, Les Miserables, and The Phantom of the Opera. Hello Dankness is a record of the time, written from the time.
