Hudson Valley Ruins – Perth Festival

Hudson Valley Ruins (Australia)
Jacky Connolly

Presented in association with Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts.

Hudson Valley Ruins is a short narrative film produced entirely in the computer game The Sims 3. Using the conventions of the game, in which players simulate the lives of a modern family, Jacky Connolly has created a complete set, narrative and cast of characters. Hudson Valley Ruins tracks the unsettling experiences of two young female characters as they navigate the banal, tense and quietly disturbing world of suburban Upstate New York.

Opening: Saturday 8 February 6:30pm–8:30pm
