    Muhkuh

    01968HD

    This film, conceived for an "oral culture" shows cows on a pasture in Northern Germany in one single shot. With interruptions, the cows seem to attempt to concentrate on the camera... until at last two cars glide past in the background, the film's cl...

    Tarzan’s Kampf mit dem Gorilla (1968)

    Tarzan’s Kampf mit dem Gorilla

    01968HD

    A satire with cinematical comedy. No other medium would permit this specific form. The comic potential of pithy scraps of dialogue between safari companions, of Tarzan's war-cries and love-stammerings was amplified by illustrating these sounds with p...

    Zipzibbelip (1968)

    Zipzibbelip

    01968HD

    A grotesque review of actions performed in vain and those of frustration incarnate: it is about the vain attempt to button up a pair of briefs, the failure of a cavalier, a voyeur, a couple taking part in a dance contest; five fragmentary scenes runn...

    Gurtrug N°2 (1967)

    Gurtrug N°2

    01967HD

    The film is a reflection upon life and it reflects itself in a surprising time-construction... a composition of two triangular pictures, one over the other and touching at their tips. An almost monotonous similarity, subjected to no more than subtle ...

    “ Cinema is what happens between frames," said German experimental filmmaker Werner Nekes. A woman and a man are on the ground together but it looks as though they are floating without moving. Silence overruns the scene; she stops and walks away. La ...
