In this short version of what was once an hour long live performance, three altered versions of the same film (made in 1974, 1998 and 2009) are projected side by side. Sound will be mixed from each of the three along with music by Marco Testoni. Narrative slippages, abstract fugues and time-travel counterpoints collide and mingle in this fractious and riotous remake of a remake of a remake of a book adaptation. NYC manages to both evolve and stay the same over the course of 35 years.
