The body has become the core of all human innovation and progress. In the process, some bodies are protected, and some are dissected. Senses, organs, and limbs are augmented, transformed, or suppressed. In this program, we are both scalpel and specimen, deconstructing the history of personhood through layers of sensory scar tissue.
This short documentary employs an anonymous hotline to elevate the voices beneath Vermont’s F-35 flight path, the first urban residents to live with one of the US military’s most controversial weapons systems overhead. Tranquil scenes of unassuming neighborhoods near Burlington International Airport are juxtaposed with voicemails of the unheard, those drowned out by the ear-shattering “sound of freedom.”
