RIDE OR DIE

The read

It runs a compact 5m.

Synopsis

Through reclaimed, remixed, and reinterpreted footage from the Fast & Furious franchise, this video piece explores the on and off-screen relationship between Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, who passed away in a car accident on November 30, 2013. Across six panels, we follow the two men and their fictional counterparts as they race and rescue one another over and over again on a last ride that, thanks to cinema, can extend into infinity. Vin sings a Rihanna ballad to his now fallen friend, who exists within movies but is no longer with us in reality.
