DESCRIPTION:
We are in love with Illuminea's version of "Midwest Scorpions." There is something piercing about it, especially alongside Robert Greene's mesmerizing video.

DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT
The video is made of images from years of watching and looking and sleeping with the camera on. It's a haunting song that makes me think of swimming in the desert. Our goal was to find some material reality that couldn't help but look like a dream. But I'm no Surrealist. This is a documentary of passing futures. Enjoy it like you enjoy opening your eyes in a chlorine pool. - Robert Greene
