Keeping Secrets Will Destroy You

2023 47 min

Overview

A collage film that filmmaker, artist, and archivist Ryan Daly has created – in collaboration with Will Oldham – to accompany the album "Keeping Secrets Will Destroy You" by Bonnie "Prince" Billy. Echoing the spirit and themes of the album, utilizing his vast archive of 16mm film prints, and working in the avant-garde tradition of “found footage” filmmaking, Daly has assembled a tour de force visual manifestation of Oldham’s album. Daly’s footage recalls, re-imagines, and suggests an alternative, timeless counterpoint to the era of the recent pandemic.
