Big Wrench (1980)

"Burden" offers a personal look at the complicated connection between an artist and his 16,000-pound freight truck, "Big Job." In a video monologue, Burden shares his story while visuals of the truck are shown behind him. His six-month effort to convert Big Job into either a mobile communications center or a traveling museum becomes a metaphor for his own mental struggles. Burden recounts his unsuccessful attempts to repurpose the truck, his difficulty letting it go, and the inner conflicts that arise. This honest account blends humor, self-reflection, and introspection, creating a compelling experience for viewers.
