Bass Pro Pyramid is an experimental documentary that utilizes conspiracy theory methods to connect and deconstruct hunting camouflage in order to reveal tactics used to obfuscate history, and current events within conservative media, the far right, and my own family. Weaving the commercial to the personal, the film traverses the artificial landscape of the Bass Pro Shop Pyramid in Memphis, Tennessee to my family’s hunting lodge in rural Pennsylvania.
