Kinématoscope

Film présenté dans le cadre d'une installation à la Chisenhale Gallery, Londres en mai-juin 2009, puis au Centre for Contemporary Arts (CCA), Glasgow, en août-septembre 2009.
"The Last Days of Jack Sheppard is a film based on the inferred prison encounters between the 18th century criminal Jack Sheppard and Daniel Defoe, the ghostwriter of Sheppard’s ‘autobiography’, set in the wake of the South Sea Bubble of 1720 – Britain’s first recorded financial crisis.
A critical costume drama constructed from a patchwork of historical, literary, and popular sources, the film’s fragmented narrative structure explores the connections between representation, speculation and the discourses of high and low culture that emerged in the early 18th century and remain relevant to the present day."
