Der todesking
Jörg Buttgereit
DE, 1990, DCP, VO ST ANG OND, 80'
A rotting human corpse supplies the framing device for seven different segments, one for each day of the week, exploring the themes of murder and suicide played out in variously shocking, exploitative, poignant or surreal ways. Hermann Kopp's fantastic electro-industrial score provides the finishing touch.
+ short film: "Tomorrow will be Dirt" (Robert Morgan, 8')
Shown as a double bill with "Schramm: Into the Mind of a Serial Killer".
