Statement:
Bunker investigates the lonely lives of American men who have decided to live in decommissioned military bunkers and nuclear missile silos, and follows the process of building and selling these structures to the wealthy and not-so-wealthy alike.
Director Bio:
Jenny Perlin makes 16mm films, videos, and animations. Her
films work with and against the documentary tradition,
incorporating innovative stylistic techniques to emphasize
issues of truth, misunderstanding, and personal history.
Her projects look closely at ways in which socialmachinations are reflected in the fragments of daily life.
Perlin’s work has been shown in numerous exhibitions and
film festivals, including at the Whitney Museum of American
Art, the Guggenheim Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, the
New York Film Festival, the Berlin Film Festival, the Rotterdam Film Festival, and others.
