Take the 5:10 to Dreamland

Open City Documentary Festival 2023 “A haunting work of oneiric cinema, Bruce Conner (1933-2008) weaves an enigmatic tone poem using vintage found footage drawn mostly from educational and instructional films. The minimalist soundtrack by Patrick Gleeson only deepens the mysteries of Take the 5:10 to Dreamland as it reveals subtle rhymes and resonances across an always emergent narrative.” (Haden Guest)
