This four minute video developed in conversation with Claire Lambe appropriates the pre-code film ‘Just Call Me Savage’ (1932) starring ‘IT’ girl, Clara Bow. The footage accentuates the unusual behaviours and dialogue of characters Nasa and Moonglow and utilises simple double screen editing techniques to draw attention to Nasa and actress Clara Bow and she performs a hysterical overwhelmed state. Within the context of feminist critique her rage offers the vice of ownership over hysteria in light of the provocations of her father and Moonglow the male victim of her juvenile behaviour.
Screened in the video program Video Vortex at ACMI Cinemas,Video Visions, Channels Festival, 2015.
