“Thinner Then Ice” is a short art style film is by the famedartist Marko Stout. This video project was designed by Stout to create an ambiguous dream-like, other-worldly atmosphere full of symbolic Jungian archetypes. The film featuresAndrina Nowak, a disheartened Greenwich Village waitress and art student. Andrina inquisitorially gazes out on a rainy street as an eccentric group of city residents walk pass on the adjacent gloomy wet sidewalk. The odd real- life Felliniancharacters include a bizarre street clown, a man walking a goat, an irrational Romanian, an Elmo Muppet-like suited gentleman and brief cameo appearance by the artist-director himself (Marko Stout).
Marko made an interestingchoice to use the word "then" as opposed to "than" in the title, this was intentionally done to situate the action in time and not comparison focused. The film is ainexplicably impressionisticandoccupied with highly symbolic content,offering the viewer a bizarre examination of our reality-show, celebrity obsessed, Warholian fifteen-minute fame infatuated culture.
