Hello Dankness at Deckchair Cinema
Hello Dankness
SAT 12 OCT
Coming Soon to
Deckchair Cinema
Comprised entirely of hundreds of film samples, Hello Dankness is a political fable that bears witness to the psychotropic cultural spectacle of the period 2016 to 2021, and the mythologies and lore that took root around it. Taking form as a suburban musical, the film follows a neighborhood through these years as consensus reality disintegrates into conspiracies and other political contagions. Part political satire, zombie stoner film, and Greek tragedy, the work is also informed by the encrypted memetics of contemporary internet culture. Begun in 2019 and labored on throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, Hello Dankness is a record of the time, written from the time.
