Visitors From Far Away to the State Machine

Hong Kong Exile (Canada)

This profane space oddity, from Hong Kong Exile, features two aliens on a journey to Earth… for their honeymoon. It’s a long trip—many light years, in fact—which gives our lovers plenty of time to swap stories of the decidedly racy, and sometimes graphic, variety. Video animation, nonlinear storytelling and a spirit of risk and experiment all come together as a multimedia space opera that spans a thousand years.

Hong Kong Exile’s artistic investigations are insightful treatments of pressing political and artistic challenges and include vital undertakings with local and international arts communities.
