ROCKHAVEN

UK
20 mins
ROCKHAVEN is Paxton's commission from the Royal Philharmonic Society, to make a short film for a live performance of contemporary composition, 'Prometheus' by Ferneyhough.
Paxton has written an experimental response to the experimental score, a process which led her to examining the young male warrior in a portrait of two boxers. The film explores themes to do with provocation, endurance, saturation and repetition and features two titanic fighters and abstract projections.
