Parallel Space: Inter View
Peter Tscherkassky
Austria | 1992 | 18 | Black & White
Made using a still camera. The photograph produced by a 35mm camera corresponds exactly to the size of two film frames. If the negative of a photograph is projected sideways, two film frames are seen. Its temporal and spatial unity disintegrates into pieces which then start corresponding with each other.

Happy End

Austria | 1996 | 10mins | Colour and Black & White
The original material of this found footage film stems from a married Viennese couple who filmed themselves over the 1960s and 70s. They are cheerful documentaries of various celebrations where the camera is, quite naturally, included in the company.

L'Arrivée
Peter Tscherkassky
Austria | 1997/98 | 2mins | Black & White
It appears as if the film with the depicted train has to work its way across the screen with a great deal of effort. A storm of material follows and Catherine Deneuve descends from the train, before falling in to the embrace of an approaching man.
