The newest film from Harmony Korine (Gummo, Spring Breakers) is titled Aggro Dr1ft, and it looks to be a bizarre piece of experimental cinema that will surely prove divisive.
Aggro Dr1ft explores the onslaught of digital ephemera and interrogates modern life through the vernacular of video games. Shot entirely through an infrared lens, the film follows a Miami Beach hitman as he embarks on the relentless pursuit of his next target.
Watch the official trailer below.
Joe Lipsett explained in his festival review of Aggro Dr1ft for Bloody Disgusting, “Harmony Korine has always been a provocateur, so it’s hardly surprising that his latest film, Aggro Dr1ft, is unconventional. The 80-minute feature is filmed entirely in infrared thermal imaging, which means the production is wall-to-wall vibrant reds, yellows, blues, and neon greens.”
Joe’s review continues, “Ultimately this is avant-garde, countercultural cinema that was never intended to appeal to the masses. As an artistic experiment, it’s certainly innovative. As a live-action film, however, Aggro Dr1ft is definitely struggle to find an audience; it’s simply too weird, too off-putting, and, yes, too boring to go mainstream. Look for this one to find a small, but dedicated niche audience en route to becoming a cult film. For everyone else, there’s a curiosity factor, but that’s not enough to warrant a recommendation.”
Travis Scott and Jordi Mollà star.
