Description:
Frank and Emily Gulick have agreed to be interviewed on TV about one of
their sons. At 22 their Carl has been accused and found guilty of a murder
they still believe he didn't commit
They answer questions from a disembodied voice and respond to the animated
imagery presented to them on screen. A mixture of live and pre-recorded
imagery aims to confuse the actors and the audience as to the nature of
‘reality’ with regard to media manipulation.
