In My Car

Mike Hoolboom / Canada / 1998 / 5 min.


synopsis

A suggestively intimate narration in borrowed images and story fragments forms this classic piece of Canadian experimental film. A fleeting sensation of home and realization of creative force confronted with invasive frameworks of collective consciousness leads to an imaginary squabble with imagination.

biography

Mike Hoolboom (1900) is a leading Canadian filmmaker and film philosopher. Since the 1980s, he has used his essayistic experiments to explore questions of identity and perception and the physical and political influences on them.
