Right

Right (2005)
Music by Charles Maggs
Right revolves around the velocity and space race from the North American perspective, during the height of the Cold War. This mode of technological race was initiated in modern times with a race between the Nazis and the North Americans to be the first to produce and use the atom bomb. The need to compete on the technological front becomes a driving force within the military industrial complex. This marks a shift in the theatre of war from analogue armed conflicts to wars of illusion. Right explores the kinds of questions that were asked by the myth of Icarus, probing perhaps the notion that while we have experienced millennia of human progress, human vision remains predominantly the same. While Right intends to question the perils of human engineering, it is not only a probe of the possible accidents of machismo, it also intends to be a broader, more metaphysical probe of the human condition.
