Who Killed Cock Robin?

Synopsis

Like a rare piece of American folk art, Who Killed Cock Robin? is hand-forged from ideas and ideals. In it you can see the workmanship and feel the passion of its maker. It is lean and sparse, simple and straightforward; every element is linked to the next. The roots of the work are in experimental film, but Who Killed Cock Robin? also plays as an exquisite “experiment.” The fusion of the two sets Travis Wilkerson up as one of the most interesting filmmakers working today.
