Casandra Stark

Casandra and Natz pose as a couple locked in a domestic dispute documenting the futility of human relationships and the pointlessness of love.

The apparent strangeness of two sisters becomes easily understood as they wreak appropriate revenge on one of their abusive husbands, by tying him up and imprisoning him on their rooftop. They slowly descend into madness as Stark wraps her head in bandages and paints her face white while clutching a baby doll.

Blank City est le récit de la vie d’un groupe disparate de réalisateurs rebelles, dans un New York au bord de la faillite, à la croisée des chemins. De la fin des années 1970 au milieu des années 1980, alors que la ville n’était qu’un terrain vague de locations et de drogues douteuses, ces réalisateurs ont façonné des œuvres osées, ayant eu une profonde influence sur le développement du cinéma indépendant tel qu’on le connaît aujourd’hui.

"Death of an Arabian Woman" (1991) originally 16mm, color, 12 min. With music by Motherhead Bug. Harkening back to her use of Catholic imagery in "Dead on my Arm," this film positions Stark as a wanderer, able to create life and in the company of religious prophets. The film is shot in Napoli and New York. "The Anarchists" with music by Missing Foundation and Menace Dement "Parades of Crazy" originally super-8, color and b/w with music by The Trees. Incorporates several processions from both Italy and New York revealing them as cathartic and transformative experiences.
