Matinee

Matinee — Plot

Drawn from an extensive collection of vintage knickknacks, toys, and souvenirs, Porter’s characters (with occasional help from a human hand) act in a succession of seemingly unrelated vignettes that together comprise a poetic vision of the human condition. Incongruities between image and music trigger unexpected political, philosophical and existential interpretations.
