Feature Film (2000)
Written and Directed by JAMES MATHERS

Mathers storyboarded the entire script in preparation for making the film.
Shot entirely in the Chinatown district of downtown Los Angeles, this hyper-real anti-capitalist drama is set among the hunter-gatherers who wash car windows in the shadow of the Pasadena freeway.
Below is a music video for Saul Williams’ cover of Sunday, Bloody Sunday from his Rise And Liberation Of Niggy Tardust album. Co-directed by Mathers, the video features significant footage from King of the Korner.
