Description

Following his acclaimed debut HAM ON RYE, Tyler Taormina’s hypnotic follow-up is a midnight mosaic that reveals a suburban town steeped in alienation. It’s the middle of the night, but things are far from quiet; as the camera peers into the late-night happenings of various residents, we witness a number of them quietly escape into the dark... on rollerblades. Drawing on 1960’s European art cinema and 1990’s kid’s TV in equal measure, HAPPER'S COMET presents striking individual vignettes that unfurl like a collective dream. Mesmerizing and meditative, the film solidifies Taormina’s gift for transforming everyday banality into uncanny cinema.

    If you like small scale stories, there’s little out there that strips it down further than this. Just lovely.

    Another Factory 25 that’s pretty original and probably would be an acquired taste for many.

    Deep Thinker’s Delight

    I love the concept of this one. Life just happening. A viewing window into random people’s lives. Very moody atmosphere. Recommended for deep thinkers.
