By the Dawn's Early Light
1994, English. Directed by Knud Vesterskov.
An intriguing, powerful work, portraying a journey through the dark, ugly underbelly of a rough and disturbed America. Resembling a Situationist d rive, images from the streets of New York and the Las Vegas strip mingle with prison-like structures. Laid over the collage is the voice of artist and gay activist David Wojnarawicz relating stories of personal anguish and acts of violence.
