In and Out of Sync with Jenny

Kallinen Minna-Kaisa

The video essay is a love letter to Jenny Hval and her music. Music can connect me, and you, to a community where sound resonates between bodies. The narrator of the video is a music lover whose haunting voice is in and out of sync with the world's post-apocalyptic events. At the same time the narrator lives in the future and attends Jenny's gig with friends. This love letter is also secretly made for echolocating bats who are just as welcome in the audience as humans.
