"The Collections" trailer

"The Collections," a new video series by Max Juren and Jill Pangallo is about what people save and why they save it. Inspired by Ann Stephenson's poem of the same name, the series features twelve, short interviews with collectors that provide a jumping off point for Max and Jill's multi-genre video and performance work. Their impulsive and improvisational responses cross-pollinate with the interviews to create a delightfully inexplicable meditation on the topic of stuff. Its a new, 40-minute collection unto itself, completed from start to finish in just one months time. Conceived, Written, Directed and Performed by Max Juren and Jill Pangallo--Executive Produced by Monofonus Press--Inspired by the poetry of Ann Stephenson
