Outer Space, Peter Tscherkassky, Austria, Black and White, 10 minutes, 1999

Outer Space

“The pace becomes frenetic, the woman is being pursued by invisible opponents, pushed against a mirror, walls of glass burst, furniture tilts and the cinematographic apparatus which the heroine begins to attack in blind fury also collapses. The images jump and stutter, the perforation holes tilt into the picture, the sound track implodes in a will o’ the wisp destruction scenario – something which only film can do so powerfully. In ten minutes OUTER SPACE races through the unsuspected possibilities of cinematographic errors – a masterpiece.” – Stephan Grissemann
