Moment # Incomplete (It doesn't matter)

Soundtrack
IMMER DAS GUTE IM AUGE BEHALTEN [2001]
[Video, 7:37 min, s/w]

Text: Ingeborg Bachmann 
[Auszüge aus „Ihr glücklichen Augen“, Erzählung]

In their new combination, text excerpts from Ingeborg Bachmann's story "Ihr glücklichen Augen" deepen the symbolism of closing one's eyes, of not being able to see any more, of not wanting to see the (media) world any more. 
Newspaper images and advertising slogans taken from the daily papers blend into a black and white world view that forces the eyes to tear up and close. But not seeing and/or seeing runs up against the world.
(The story of the man-woman relationship, which determines the plot of the narrative, is omitted).
The piano improvisation was recorded to the finished film. The text excerpts were added.
