On the Road Going Through (1987)

Directed by Leighton Pierce

· 15m

While interweaving complex images, a dense stereo soundtrack and brief interviews with local people, "On the Road Going Through" is designed to provide a portrait of a fragment of rural life in Iowa. With traffic on the road functioning as the drone, "On the Road Going Through" creates a meditative, impressionistic view of a composite small town in Iowa. While actually shot in many towns, the tape implies a unified single town that is, after all, consistent with the subjects shared concerns. The people talk about kids, dogs, traffic and storms as traffic repeatedly passes by in the background.
