The Broken Altar (2013)
[19:30 | 35mm (1.85) | Stereo Sound | 2013] The Broken Altar is a portrait of open-air theaters documented under the strange light of day, emptied of the once present hum of human voices, radioed-in soundtracks and tires on gravel. Scripting the landscape and exploring the residue of a cinematic history, The Broken Altar forms a sculptural treatment of the architectural artifacts of these abandoned and barren spaces: speaker boxes rise from tall grass like grave markers and the screens themselves are monumental, sepulchral in their peeling whiteness.

Very Cool!!!
Good concept, poorly executed.
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
