Synopsis

Dog used to run a highly profitable team of international telephone fraudsters, until he was chased into hiding by a hitman. With little human contact and only a white crow for company, Dog has survived only on paranoia and memories. Now, two years later, he's still alive and desperate to live. He's had time to re-evaluate his life, and realizes that he doesn't understand most people's idea of normality; but the lure of the buzz, the money and the bullshit is too much: He wants to get his old team together again for one last pitch. So now he's back on the case, putting together a massive telephone scam, and we're there to witness it in detail so accurate, it's almost a beginner's guide to telephone fraud! But will this lifestyle still provide him with the illusions he needs to believe in himself?

Synopsis

Destricted is the first compliation of its kind, a series of short films created by seven of the world's most provocative artists and filmmakers - Matthew Barney, Larry Clark, Richard Prince, Sam Taylor-Wood, Marina Abramovic, Marco Brambilla and Gaspar Noé.   Revealing the diverse attitudes by which we represent ourselves sexually, Destricted explores the intersection of art and pornography. By highlighting controversial issues about the representation of sexuality in art, the seven filmmakers question whether art can be disguised as pornography, and pornography as art or as something else altogether.   The result is a collection of explicit, stimulating, challenging, provocative, strange and sometimes humorous scenarios that leave it up to the viewer to decide. As compelling and contentious within the art world, as in the film industry, Destricted was among Artforum magazine's 'Best of 2005', an official selection for the 2006 Sundance Film Festival and the 45th International Critics' Week at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival.  Destricted's first public screening will be at Tate Modern, London in September 2006 to mark its release on DVD and digital platform viewing.

Synopsis

A surreal short film set in the ruins of London, driven by a contemporary music-hall libretto. The film contrasts the beautiful and grotesque in a narrative focusing on the universal question - are our lives driven by destiny or chance? This powerful short narrative embodies key aspects of the classic Gothic tale, with echoes of Du Maurier's Trilby and Le Fanu's dark stories. The mystery of the 'true' nightmare of the narrative is left to the viewer to decide.
