Hardeep Pandhal presents his exploration of white supremacist psychology, taking German sociologist and writer Klaus Theweleit’s study of Nazi fascism and masculinity in his classic book Male Fantasies as a primary point of departure.
In the video, Pandhal raps to a score composed with Glasgow-based musician Joe Howe (Sunbutler, Ben Butler and Mousepad, Germlin) as we are dragged through a cartoon world marked by male fears of floods. It forms a dense story board where borrowed and imagined visions border between the homely and the gratuitous.
Scenarios are woven from a rich array of histories and mythologies, including British director Richard Heslop’s 1991 film based on Noah’s Ark Floating, and a scene taken from American writer Chester Himes’ cartoonishly violent Harlem Detective series.
