Description
Bob Sendall is a chef and a party planner. A charity dinner held at the Mattress Factory is filmed according to the conventions of reality television. The diners, treated as celebrities, are subjected to the indifferent scrutiny of the camera even at the most intimate moments of eating and drinking. The tawdry debris of the event, dead flowers, empty wine glasses, and discarded napkins are reconfigured as token evidence of the event. Video, by contrast, documents the glamour of the occasion.
