The Whisper Kills It
0.0/10
Overview
The Whisper Kills It is a short experimental film that uses a layered discontinuous narrative structure to present an allegorical meditation on the ways that violent metaphors in the English language, derived principally from religious and economic discourses, shape notions and expressions of success. The film opens in a movie theater and is presented as a promotional advertisement. An audience of misfits is transfixed and growing increasingly agitated by what they are watching. On the screen, a homebound, self-made televangelist delivers a fiery sermon about the perils and pleasures of material and moral success while in the background his wife performs a Javanese dance and his off-screen congregants engage in an aggressive dialectic of call-and-response. As the sermon and the audience reaction crescendo together into the orgiastic ecstasy of violent metaphor, The Whisper begins maniacally destroying the camera, causing the audience to explode in sublime transcendence.
