Viewer Advice: Contains stroboscopic imagery.


An exhilarating work of collage that takes a wild ride through archival imagery, historical violence and the construction of Black identity in the West.

Assembled from footage of the LA riots, slaughterhouses, wildfires, mid-century Malibu and 90s newsreels, marlow magdalene’s explosive collage film catches a California in a violent cycle of death and rebirth, unveiling a cataclysmic future in which Black identity becomes a dance with the devil.
