DELIVERY

J-P Sartre once stated that the only free man is the man in chains. Stemming from an attempt to develop this idea, the film �Delivery� wrests its suspense structure from two cases of men seeking meaningful performances within confined parameters; the now infamous chess game between Garry Kasparov and IBM computer �Deep Blue�, and the case of Anthony Blunt; art historian and KGB double-agent. Central to this attempt is the production of a synthetic universe in which contrived scenarios, filmic devices, edits and sound loops constantly refer back to the process of �reality production� and the parameters by which individuals engage in producing images. �Delivery� consists in a deconstructed journey of the image of free choice and the absurd quest for a meaningful existential performance both in front of the camera and behind it.
