A filmed portrait of Canadian actress Molly Parker ('Titanic' and the television series' 'Deadwood' and 'Six Feet Under') is superimposed on a backdrop of an abandoned restaurant and gas station. Lewis has used the traditional method of studio rear projection to combine the images, a technique commonly used in 1930's and 1940's cinema to 'transport' stars to dangerous or exotic landscapes by filming them in a studio against a backdrop of a previously filmed location.
Shot on Super 35mm film and transfered to video, by Mark Lewis in 2006.
