Haikus 1: Our Government, and the Sky (2025)

Movie 1 min

The film consists of nine shots. The first eight are one second long; the last one is two seconds The title gives away the "plot." The first three show three of the worst people in the Trump administration. The next two are excerpts from a video T made himself. (You didn't know that our president as a video artist, now, did you?) It uses AI. We don't even know if T wrote the AI prompts himself, but it is his film, since he presented it as his, and shows what he would like to do to all those who "peacebly...assemble...to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." These five were all filmed off my computer screen. Then the last four shots, filmed outdoors, show nature. I do think it's better than one might imagine for a film that has such an obvious "message:" Trump is bad, so stop looking at him and his minions and look at leaves and sky. Filmed in Chicago, November 2, 2025.
