Special Features

Special Features is an apparent interview with three highlights. Presented as if a lo-fi fragment from an unnamed video production, an interviewee interacts with an interviewer, recounting a special experience at once unique and shared. Assuming the familiar form of a sit-down interview, the role of the interviewee is quickly revealed as an edited performance, and depending on one’s “behind-the-scenes” knowledge, a performed interview, or documentation of actors performing text they are reading in real-time from a teleprompter, covering seemingly personal and uncomfortable topics normally left unsaid.
