completely giving up, dying alone, rejecting love but not for hate, celibacy, abandoning god, god abandoning you, your idols hating you, poison, love leaving you behind, only knowing hate but not hating others, self sabotage, vomit gore in slow motion, dsbm for angels, clouds of weed smoke in the palest blue sky, not knowing when to stop, knowing you went too far, knowing you cared too much, no one else caring enough, a tiny note at the bottom of a dime bag that reads "i hate you"

A non-narrative short film tracking the movement of a flock of women through a megalithic landscape. They appear to be working, enacting a cryptic ceremony with a sense of calm & purposeful labor. A score weaving together their breath & hums with sounds collected from the landscape: wind, Rattlesnake grass & their hands rubbing against stone. The women's gestures come from both work & dance – evoking the strange overlap between labor & ritual. This film began as a response to the physicality of daily life as a mother & the rhythm of these acts; the relentless repetition of parenting, working, tending the world with our bodies. This repetition can easily become vacant labor, but it can also transform into a kind of meditative, even transcendent ritual, a collective communion with the landscape & each other. ALMA offers itself as a companion piece to McKenna’s photographic rubbings, a glimpse into the same world from where her art arises.
