Synopsis
In the 21st century, reflections on the 20th century emerge through a blend of Super 8 and phone footage in "The New World." The narrative, spanning 23 minutes, examines themes of trauma, memory, and storytelling, intertwining elements of film noir and fairy tale. Eileen Myles describes the work as a portrayal of "the broken puppetry of her narrators," capturing a nostalgic view of history through the lens of various characters, including waitresses and women gazing out of windows.
