The Revolt and the Desire
The Revolt and the Desire
1991, German. Directed by Ursula Pürrer.
Unpunctuated sentences appear word by word on the screen, pointing to the temporality of the reading process and the instantaneity of their appearance. Various phrases comment on this fragmentation: "Irritatingly searching for a medium to express the simultaneity of spatial and temporal jumps" or "The concentrated gaze of the female fetishist experiences objects and movements in exactly defined excerpts." The body, too, as another phrase suggests, is split open (aufgesplittert). In this film about seriality, people are referred to as A or G" in their sexual relations with one another.
