Blot Out The Sun (2002)
A garage in central Portland, Oregon is the setting for this conceptual re-working of James Joyce's Ulysses. The garage owner, Jay, mechanics and neighborhood denizens serve as narrators, reading lines from the novel that focus on death, love, social inequality and the relationship between individuals and the universe.
