MOVIES - EXPERIMENTAL
NORMAN PLAYS GOLF
by Samir
This is a video adaptation of the homonymous multi-media play by Samir.
Ted, an influential media tycoon, convinces his wife Jane, a former peace activist, to lead an exclusive interview with general Norman. The live transmission is held on a golf course in the desert. Jane and the general, who'd been enemies since the war in Vietnam, come to an understanding. The show is suddenly cut off when Carlos, the most wanted terrorist, takes Jane and the general as hostages.
A grotesque on the influence the electronic media have on the world.
This film is included on the Samir DVD box set.
