DMC-13

Vidéo expérimentale | dv | couleur | 9:22 | Irlande | 2013

DMC-13 is a short video produced on analog video synthesisers at the Experimental Television Center in New York. The film uses images from a documentary on John DeLorean - the ill fated automobile manufacturer - who opened his luxury sports car factory in Belfast at the height of the troubles in the north of Ireland. As the US car industry collapsed, and DeLorean was arrested for alleged cocaine smuggling, his dream of `affordable luxury`, which had spent over £100 million of taxpayers money, also perished.
