Description
Frankreich Edition, PAL/Region 0 DVD: TON: Stummfilm ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), BONUSMATERIAL: Szene Zugang, Wechselwirkendes Menü, SYNOPSIS: Kinogamma is a peculiar kind of a road movie in which the director entices viewers into a complex visual and musical illusion created by him together with his chance travel companions and fellow human beings. His cast members are nearly speechless, immersed in their work or daily routines. There are no major or lesser characters here, each one of them is a modest everyman allowing us a glimpse into his world of everyday objects, sounds and actions. The viewer drifts between individual stories making no distinction between fact and fiction: we walk the subway underpasses, empathise with the woman giving birth right before our eyes, have lunch with the workers at a factory canteen, and admire the perseverance of the little aspiring ballerinas. The series of photographs and the film presented here comprise the artist's visual diary kept, quite literally, on the road. Moscow, Orsk, Novotroitsk, Tallinn, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan - no matter where he finds himself at the moment, Siegfried invariably captures the very essence of the local social and cultural life. The main characters of his black and white photographs are the locals and passers-by encountered in the congested cities. The reality captured on photographic film, particularly in the artist's psychologically intense portraits, stands in strong contrast to his musical and cinematic output based on dynamic editing and experiments with sound. ...Kinogamma: Part One - East, Part Two - Far East ( )
