Beginning from the question of ‘What does one go through to come to L. A. from elsewhere and become an actor?’ the filmmaker creates with ‘American Dream Acting’ a portrait of the film industry’s newcomers. Shot in one of L.A.’s architectural icons, Case Study House #22 plays unique role in L.A. mythology and serves as the ideal backdrop for the documentary concept film ‘American Dream Acting’. The work deals with the desire for, as well as the belief in, the illusion of making the American dream come true. In episodes spread throughout the day five protagonists perform their personal stories, which are often tied to structural conditions, migration, assimilation, and foreignness. American Dream Acting transports a specific feeling and atmosphere of the place and the current zeitgeist. |
