Uscita di sicurezza

USCITA DI SICUREZZA consists of visual notes taken at a lookout point in Italy and “Seeräuber-Jenny” by Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht, as sung by the filmmaker herself. The song takes on a more literal meaning halfway through the film when the images of passing tourists suddenly give way to a shot of a solemn female worker, who stares back at the camera defiantly. With Friedl vom Gröller’s distinctive dry humour, the film cleverly updates the radical content of the 1928 ballad for the context of present-day overtourism and the exploitation of (woman) workers it creates. (Salvador Amores)
