Roadside

2008 · 12 min

A brief, dreamlike drift of found images that unsettles and seduces in equal measure.

Drama
Starring
Joe Savino
Overview
Comerford's first digital short which evolved into an installation, is an audacious blur of ugliness and beauty. Drawing on found footage from personal archives, it outlines an encounter between a man and a woman in a stolen car.
How it feels
