I'm in Pittsburgh and It's Raining

I'm in Pittsburgh and It's Raining is an experimental portrait of a lighting stand-in/body double whose work and corporal self appears in films even if her name does not. Through a purposeful masking of the (sometimes subtle) differentiations between performance and acting, a famous Hollywood actress and her double, audience expectation and cinema magic, this video offers a look behind the silver screen.

I'm in Pittsburgh and It's Raining is presented as part of the program An Other Cinema: Apparatus and Histories, curated by Lukas Brasiskis and designed to precede the online symposium The State of the Moving Image (September 17–19).
