Summer evenings and lemonade A time when the whole town knew each other and said "hello" First came screens against the bugs Then came glass against the chill Then came walls against the winter The street became so loud with cars and trucks Passersby diminished Inside there is air-conditioning and TV In “Porch”, home movies archived at the Louis Wolfson II Florida Moving Image Archive were edited to Julia Wolfe’s score and Deborah Artman’s libretto. In Ms. Artman’s libretto, a family’s front porch evolves into another interior room of their house, in turn reflecting their relationship to a changing community. Morrison’s film traces several families over a number of decades, depicting an innocence that was lost and reclaimed.
