Reflecting on his own experience of the AIDS pandemic in the 80s and the neoliberal agenda that has since spread like a virus, Hoolboom's voice guides us through a provocative thesis, enhanced by his brilliant ability to assemble found footage from 8mm film to video games and everything in between. An intoxicating cocktail of clips blends Margaret Thatcher and James Baldwin with George Michael and David Hasselhoff, resulting in a time-warping salve for our image-saturated culture."
