We first came across the fantastic work of film maker Tyler T Williams when we were astounded by his creations for Pandit‘s Kathryn, My Love and Coma Cinema‘s Blue Suicide.
Both incredibly absorbing and surreal visual experiences, Tyler T Williams‘ latest production only further reveals the very talented and unique style he has managed to craft.
Situated in the late 50’s, Contact Grey is set to the haunting music of Dirty Beaches LP ‘Horror‘, in particular tracks ‘Sea Drift‘ and ‘Desert‘. This soundtrack inspires what Williams describes as ‘vivid vignettes of isolation and despair from haunting nightmares of the past’. Presented with the solitary character of a troubled man, Jeffrey Echols, the film displays his sustained mental break down as the narrator gives the viewer an intimate insight into Echols thoughts. Based around the paranoia and questioning born out of the extraterrestrial happenings in the USA during the 50’s, the film stands as a metaphor of trying to find truth in a time of ambiguity and conspiracy, only for Echols to dig too deep.
