Beneath the Surface of the Everyday | Dir. Alex Morelli

An observer of quotidian strangeness, Deb Sokolow creates semi-fictitious drawings and books commenting on architecture, politics, and pop culture. Shot on 16mm and adopting the style of 70s paranoid thrillers, the film traces the evolution of Sokolow's speculative ethos, detailing a shadowy encounter at McDonald's and her fixation with Rocky Balboa.
