8903 Empire is loosely inspired by the 1964 black-andwhite Andy Warhol film Empire, which also runs for eight hours. Warhol’s Empire consists of a single unchanging shot of the Empire State Building in New York City. Kevin Jerome Everson and his collaborator Kahlil I. Pedizisai (who serves as assistant director on many of Everson’s films) filmed the comings and goings in front of a trap house on Empire Street in Cleveland, Ohio.
