Making Strangers (2003)

Making Strangers is a one-sided conversation between a lover and the indifferent beloved. Drawing upon A Lovers' Discourse (1977) by Roland Barthes, Making Strangers is a travelogue along a circuitous and absurd path, staging the sites of ravishment, preoccupation and exile in the lover's unreal experience.
