Discord

A gothic-infused escapade where slapstick visual gags are playfully tested. A man disappears into a bathtub and out hops a woman; a fisherman casts his rod over a hill into a glass container which tries to swallow him; a gravedigger makes a futile attempt to lift a headstone. Two men enter a tunnel seconds before a train, only to exit a few moments later, visibly injured. Kerrigan flexes her filmmaking skills, masterfully playing with narratives and storytelling techniques. As she explains, it’s a ‘discordant epic, culminating in an execution.”
