Plots(1)

Images are fragmented from reality like empty hulls, and become filled with false meaning. It is necessary to destroy memory in art, says Debord's melancholy voiceover. And yet – the photographs of friends' unconscious body language and above all her face repeatedly emerging from the series of public images give the film a melancholy yearning for lost meaning.
