Joey Carducci

A meditation on elevators, hotel lobbies, hundred dollar bills, the bathroom, a cab, chandeliers, cocktails, the receptionist, arousal, and other routines in the life of a New York City callboy. Gorgeously hand-processed in full 16mm glory, All That Sheltering Emptiness explodes the typical narratives of desire, escape and intimacy to evoke something more honest.

An experimental short dedicated to Barbara Hammer, taking some of Hammer's outtakes from her Tender Fiction as backdrop.

Home movie film (Kodachrome, 8mm) of a family trip to Italy circa 1970 is edited with (hand-processed, Ektachrome, Super-8mm) footage from one of the same locations in 2003. Children play outside in the backseat of cars. Older adults walk around in the countryside and work in gardens. Film contains interstitial titles in English/Italian. A hand points to words in an English/Italian dictionary.
