Drive with Persephone (2018)

Overview

“On the most basic of levels, Drive with Persephone recasts the ancient myth of Persephone's abduction in the language of YouTube 'drive with me' vlogs. On closer inspection, the work is so much more, perhaps above all in its compassionate register of the perils and exultations of adolescence, and the wisdom and cruelty of old age. A timely, potent rumination on the enduring, immutable cycle of life and death, MilleFeuille's video confronts—with a mixture of stoicism and defiant hope—the unmooring of social life in our apparently hyper-connected world.” description written by Greg Cohen, Festival of (In)Appropriation
