The Average Family

 

Medium: Short Film

Dir: Cameron Manion

2015

 

Taking footage from Black Dog, this poetic documentary follows a family in their everyday life as archival audio footage of key historic events plays in the background. As the family goes through the day, the audio builds up in a clutter of bad news and post nine-eleven panic followed by recurring static and an ominus television screen. 

 

The film won Best Short Documentary in the Documentary Videomaking screening at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid.
