About

Fragments of radio communications accompany archival footage of a family from the 1960s and 70s. The title of this work is inspired by Don De Lillo’s sci-fi short story in which two astronauts receive unidentified radio signals while orbiting above an Earth torn apart by war. These radio signals are later revealed to have been old broadcasts from Earth.
