SHIRLEY – VISIONS OF REALITY
Many a top-heavy nature dreamed away the museum curfew while putting oneself into a canvas and had to step back into reality: "Enclosed in substantiveness." Shirley prefers to go two steps forward and emancipatory enlivens the drawings she looks at. While tilting into contemplation she takes action and says good-bye to the solitary path of keen thinkers, who in any case not get active. She remodels "herstory". Edward Hopper awakes to life, Amerika awakes new.
Trailer:
All of the characters portrayed in the first documentary, awarded the golden Lion in Venice, are doing their own thing. The Holy Grail is a melting pot on the brink of Italy's hugest highway. Grande Raccordo Anulare the freeway around Rome is called. There the car noise is the obligatory cricket near a sociotope quite able to break with our idea of fringe area – in both directions on the continuum between exurbs and slum. We are watching an urban quotation on the subtext of human history at – how adequate – a traffic junction. (bk)
