Teenage Lightning
video

La strada e il tempo scorrono paralleli, semplicemente proiettati in avanti. Teenage Lightning è un road movie ridotto ai suoi termini minimi: una macchina, due ragazzi, una bambina, musica a tutto volume. Il viaggio si snoda tra le rocce e i tunnel che forano le montagne. Guidare solo per guidare, fino a prendere il volo e vedere finalmente la terra dall’alto.

The road and time run parallel, simply projected forward. Teenage Lightning is a road movie reduced to its minimum terms: a car, two boys, a child, music at full blast. The journey unfolds among the rocks and the tunnels that bore through the mountain. Driving for the sake of driving, until taking flight and finally seeing the earth from on high.
