The Over-Scene
"There's an emptiness here. A story that became a myth. Something uncontained and half-remebered."
Synopsis
The Over-Scene documents the loss of subculture, and the feelings of disconnection and alienation that result in individuals searching for community and mutual understanding.The film captures some of Toronto's hidden venues, many of which contain remnants of past subcultural activity but are now devoid of life and social collectivity, inhabited instead by a pronounced absence. The subjects-close friends of the artist with shared experiences of the city's waning subcultural landscape-are shown navigating places that no longer resonate with the complexity of contemporary "scenes," emphasizing the relational gaps in 21st-century youth culture. The Over-Scene creates a dialogue between multiple points in history, illustrating the duality of longing for a unified subcultural community-often influenced by commemorations of the past-while simultaneously striving to forge one's own identity and sense of place in today's world.

Bruce Conner’s most celebrated film for a reason: it takes historical moments that were replayed over and over on television—chilling repetition of Kennedy assassination coverage—and repurposes them into a meditation on how the media tries to exert authority and apply a sense of order to the anarchic. And though it may sound perverse to say so, the film is also—not incidentally—a thrill to watch. -- The A.V. Club
