Tender Buttons
Tender Buttons
1985, German. Directed by Ursula Pürrer & A. Hans Scheirl.
A filmic homage to Gertrude Stein's "Tender Buttons": Everyday objects and especially house plants are imbued with cubist dimensions – everything moves, everything is alive. Lesbian fellowship swims like fish in the water to a shore of ruins – this city can only be "ash". (Andrea B. Braidt)
