6.5 minutes

16mm color animation

Another Great Day depicts a day in the life of a housewife as she routinely performs her daily chores; TV, radio and pulp novels form her world of fantasy.

She moves in this world of distorted values, ineffectual, uncomprehending, only able to recognize her own despair. Another Great Day was animated with painted, inked and collaged black and white photos, shot sequentially, which results in a pixilation-like effect.
