Service of the Goods
29m
"Service of the Goods" is comprised of selected scenes from American filmmaker Frederick Wiseman’s seminal documentaries profiling state-run, tax-funded institutions, including "Titicut Follies" (1967), "High School" (1968), "Law and Order" (1969), "Hospital" (1970), "Basic Training" (1971), "Juvenile Court" (1973) and "Welfare" (1975). While creating shot-by-shot reproductions of each scene, including accompanying subtitled dialogue, Wiseman’s representational strategy–his overall production and editing process–is, itself, evoked as an institution subject to the same means of observation and expression.
