Description

Invisible Film reimagines Peter Watkins’s Punishment Park (1971), a radical anti-war film banned in both the UK and the US after the Vietnam War. Melik Ohanian replaces its images with a single static shot of a 35mm projector screening the censored film in daylight in the San Bernardino desert—its original location. Projected without a screen, the image disappears into the desert air, turning cinema itself into both subject and ghost.
