Time
is on my side
Video, 17 min., 2002
The video deals with political utopias - why we need them, what problems
we have with them, how we change our approach to them while getting
older, and why it's important for men to take care of their looks.
It's a cut-up from different science-fiction-movies (Godzilla, Star
Trek, Matrix) combined with a spoken background text.
Vorwärts, ihr freien Schweine! (Go on,
you free pigs!)
Video, 25 min., 2002
The focus of this video is our experience of power/domination-structures
- and how we get rid of them. Scenes are taken from cartoon movies
for children (The Emperor's New Groove, A Bug's Life, etc.). It is
very educational, very useful for your everyday life, a must for everyone
who has ever considered becoming a free pig. |
