Train Again

The arrival of a new Tscherkassky film once every half-decade counts as a genuine cinematic event, the Viennese maestro having established a global reputation via painstakingly-crafted classics of the avant-garde like OUTER SPACE (1999) – all of which have been showcased at the Viennale. Now he returns with what may be his most relentlessly kinetic work yet, condensing the long history of railways in the movies into a rousing blast for the senses and created in heartfelt tribute to another local legend of experimental cinema, Kurt Kren (1929-1988).
