Talk to Me

Synopsis

In 1985, Mark Craig bought an answering machine. He then kept every message it recorded for 20 years! "Talk To Me" is a personal life journey from long-haired graduate to grey-haired middle age, conveyed entirely by real answer machine messages recorded over two decades. Visuals comprise a large collage of photos and ephemera all shot in one continuous take.
