Shu Lea Cheang probes the commodification of pleasure in the tale of a robot programmed to accumulate sexual experience for a corporation, in an explicit cyberpunk fantasy set to techno grooves.
New media visionary Shu Lea Cheang directs this avant-anarcho eco-satire in which a lesbian couple living on Staten Island find themselves ensnared in a vast conspiracy involving a ghost ship of nuclear refuse, ominous television commercials, and deadly cat food. Envisioning New York City as a toxic waste dump of consumerist detritus, Fresh Kill offers a bracing, queer feminist response to the patriarchal poison of corporate capitalism.
