Lee Armistead Ritchie is an artist, writer, and filmmaker based in New York City.
Through a glass of beer on the windowsill. Ambient sound.
After a poem by Emily Dickinson. A collage disaster film and experiment with various zones of materiality: ice, lava, land, sea, and sky. All found footage lifted from the internet.
Rapid montage of still images assembled from detritus dumped off my camera roll, collected over the past five to ten years. On completing the film, I subsequently experienced an inexplicable spontaneous bout of involuntarily selective amnesia, wherein I completely forgot my iPhone passcode and had to erase everything on it without a backup. Thus, these are some of the only images rescued.—Lee
N/A
Convicted corporate criminal Howard engineers a prison break as he and a number of fellow inmates are being transferred to a new facility. The escapees storm a shopping mall and take a group of shoppers hostage (after killing many more of them) before making their demands. Only Rudy, a former mercenary and brother of one of the fugitives, can take out the criminals before more of the hostages die.
