art collective, me,
video, her, photos.
- And we're pretty
f*cking good at it.
- Yeah, yeah we were,
um, but guess what
it doesn't really matter
because you can't pay rent
just doing art sh*t,
so we've decided to
do something new,
something fun and exciting.
- Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm. - Uh.
Basically we're new here,
so just be gentle with us.
- Yeah, and if you
want anything specific
you can just send us a message
and, um, we'll do our
best to accommodate.
- Uh. Private show
tickets are available here
and, um, click

- What's wrong
with the last cut?
- Nothing, I just... [exhales]
figured we could
spice it up a bit.
Had some inserts.
[sniffles]
I've got like a whole folder of
stuff we can use on my laptop.
Maybe change the soundtrack.
I'm thinking Goblin, maybe
Cipriani, Bay of Blood.
Oh you know I was talking
to Heidi last night
and she has that photography
exhibition at the gallery.
[chupse]
Apparently her main
guy has dropped out
because he was sending
pictures of his d*ck to some
of the models so she said she'd
take a look at my portfolio.
- That's good.

He specifically said not Bill.
[heavy breathing]
See?

that's the problem.

What does he want us to do?
k*ll a homeless person
on camera, ain't he?
[tense sound]
- What about eyeball
lady over there?
- "Lucia of Syracuse."
When she decided to give her
family's riches to the poor,
she had her eyes gouged out,
set on fire and a humongous
sword to the throat.
- Any favorites?
- Has to be crazy Kate.
"Catherine of Siena."
She claimed to have a ring
made out of Christ's foreskin.
The f*cking thing was only
visible to her of course.
Those were the
original perverts.
They paved the way for us.
- You look healthy.
Electric.
[smirks]
What's going on
in Jasper's world?
[footsteps]
- I don't even know
where to start.
[sighs]
- No, no.
There's something here.
Something new.
That elusive glint in

about a new piece.

Oh, Jasper.

me ten grand a scene,
you can come up with
all the rules you want.
He likes you, you know.
We talked about you.
And Harriet.
Yeah.
I sent him some of
those old videos.
Loved it.
Top job.
Top job.
[rustles]
[thud]
[heavy breathing]
You just need to
follow his assignments.
And never watch the tapes.
[chuckles]
- I mean we could just do some
f*cking cave paintings instead.
- Woah, woah.
What this camera sees gets
engraved into the magnetic tape.
It's a chemical process.
Physical.
What this sees is
literally being conjured
into the material world.
Just hear me out.
What's worse can happen.
[tense sound intensifies]
No, Jasper.
We're not getting any younger.
Resistance is a
f*cking meat grinder.
We have to suck the weirdos t*ts
while they're plump and fat.
How's Harriet?
- Yeah, she couldn't be better.
- Great to hear.
Great to hear.

Come closer.
Closer.
We may proceed.
What you're about to create
is unlike anything
you've experienced.
Your choice is final.
There's no looking back.
Will you glance behind the veil?
- Yes.

the tape to a PO box.
- Oh, yeah, great.

For the archive.

stay here tonight.

I don't ask you about your sh*t,
so, don't ask me
about mine, okay?
- Yeah, well, there's not
a lot going on my side.
- Yeah? And who's fault is that?
- I'm working on a
new piece, you know?
- Yeah, how's that going?
- Why don't we go out together?
Celebrate.
[smooch]
- I'm free on Thursday.
[turning door knob]
[door closes]
- I want something
classy this time.
And, like, maybe the
whip in the body,
but with some real
action going on.
Uh.
Choose a scene, play
with it, you know,
but the whip is a must.
- Okay, yeah.
- The rest that's up to you.
- Sure.
- And keep the camera
closer, all right?
- Yeah, yep. - All right.
- Okay. - Just give me some
of that sweet whip, you dig?
- All right. - All right, yeah.

Getting stuck.

Stuck.

I've been thinking about
our new mutual friend.
How do you meet him?

I specifically asked you not to.

[sighs]
- I just... I just
don't understand.
What's the problem with
the usual boring clients?

I've met some of my best
friends through this gig.
- That's some f*cking
military-grade mediocrity
you've got right there, love.
[thud]
[footsteps]
- Something feels off.
- Of course it feels off,
that's the whole f*cking point.
[sighs]
It's probably some
bored, ultra-rich,
hoarding f*cked-up video so
you can wake to in their bunker
after they've caused the
downfall of civilization.
Trapped in this
world, we're done.
It's a place driven mad
by repressed desire.
The Empire.
- Never ended yet, I know.
- Don't be smart.
- Why do the tapes
smell like that?
Like they've been treated
with... some sort of chemical.
And how are they going to know
if we've even watched the tape?
- You need to tread lightly.
We don't know who's
behind the hand, alright?
Could be anyone.
- Ever heard of Sam Norda?
[background noise]
[deep breathing]
- Tell me.
What have you seen when
you watched the tapes?
- f*ck off.
- You see, Harriet,
something I learned about you
is something I
learned about myself.
We're looking for
the same thing.
To create something beautiful
and then be annihilated by it.
Cheers.

- Did you enjoy their last tape?

So, what next?
[sighs]
- Can I...
Can I ask you something?
What's the purpose
of the assignments?
- The point of the rituals
is to empty yourselves,
to become meat, to bring
the impossible night.
These are ancient ways
of the flesh remastered
in polyester plastic and oxide.
There's power in the rituals,
but to achieve it in full,
you have to leave your
fears, become a true artist.
Tell me, where's the female?
- I don't know.
- Do you want to know who
she's f*cking right now?
- How do you know where she is?
The rituals give
us unbound vision.
They can transport
you to new places.
The rituals will
teach you to see.
And once you gain true vision,
you'll get your heart's desire.
Oh.
Can you see it yet?
[exhales]
- So?
- Does this feel right to you?
- Well, I have a theory.
It's... It's an auto-hypnosis
prompt, like a trigger.
He's pulling a
Manchurian candidate.
- Do you feel like we're
in control of this?
- Are we ever really in control?
Come on.
Be a good boy.

All the tapes are from...
- I don't know.
Is it on the tape?

tape is magnetic,

it on the tape,
it wouldn't be on the footage.

Yeah, I know.

You know?

us under her own will.
The female is ready
to become a vessel
to what sits behind the veil.
The only way to bring her
back is to master the rituals,
capture the flow of
time, to haunt it.
