I Love Alaska is a 2009 documentary chronicling the AOL search history of "user 711391," whose searches are narrated by a monotone female voiceover.[1] The film was produced by Submarine Channel, and released episodically in 2009 before being uploaded to stream for free on Minimovies.org.[2]
Plot
[edit]Only glimpsing the life of user 711391 through her search history, we are introduced to a middle-aged woman from Texas looking to rejuvenate her sex life and dreaming of life in Alaska.[3]
Structure
[edit]The film is broken into 13 episodes, each running between 3 and 6 minutes long. A voiceover reads aloud the searches of user 711391 in chronological order, indicated by a timestamp on the bottom of the screen. Each episode is accompanied by a steady shot of Alaska (e.g. a mountain range, a log cabin, a highway).
