synopsis
1 tension ? 2 symmetric gazes ? 3 Al Capone's doppelganger ? 4 secrets behind armor-plated doors ? 5 crowds of onlookers and paparazzi
20 Old documentary footage of the release of an Al Capone look-alike from prison, with the onlookers not aware that the entire scene is staged, forms the basis for this optical-narrative construction that builds the tension of the moment through visual manipulation and slow revelation.
