Abendland

Nikolaus Geyrhalter

TU 15.01 2013 — 20:00

By Nikolaus Geyrhalter - German spoken 90 '(in the context DOCVILLE on tour)

The creator of the fantastic Our Daily Bread now makes the poetic Abendland a nocturnal journey through Europe ending up in a world of security firms, night nurses, endlessly protracted meetings and non-stop assistance. Of clandestine refugees, excessive revelry and vulgar entertainment. With mostly wordless but eloquent sequences he shows how Europe, which happily portrays itself as the crown of Western civilization, has a different side when the sun goes down.
