David Kramer "Age Old Story"
Freight and Volume
This event has ended.
"Age Old Story" tells the tale of two young artists who struggle out of the gate on their paths towards artistic greatness. Both careers are heavily influenced by luck and circumstance. One artist's luck is wonderful and good, while the other's (Kramer's) luck is strictly bad and often bordering on disaster. The film is shot on black + white super 8 film stock, and the sets are built in early DIY fashion to mimic the legendary silent movie masters like Chaplin and Keaton. Everything from the frozen toilet to the toney uptown apartment of a wealthy patron of the arts has been built by Kramer alone to set the background for the story. Like Chaplin and Keaton before him, Kramer's lot in life in this film is to walk through the earth as a victim of circumstance, while watching his friend's career ascend to greatness purely by being always in the right place, at the right time.
