Mobile Experiential Cinema: MPLS : Ben Moren

A collaboration with Daniel Dean

Second Bridge is Wider, But Not Wide Enough is the title of the film contained within Mobile Experiential Cinema: MPLS. The project is a roving, bicycle mounted cinematic experience that invites audience members to view a series of multi-part film segments that are screened onto the original sites where they were filmed. The project explores the paradox between a film experience and reality, while a narrative story works to blur these boundaries.

The project revolves around a 30 minute short film broken into 5 sections/locations. Audience members travel via bike to each of the locations, and live action events occur at the screening locations and in-between as the ride progresses.
