Beyond Zero 1914–1918
Bill Morrison / United States / 2014 / Central European Premiere / 40 min.
synopsis
Unique archival footage from the First World War showing hordes of people involved in one of the greatest tragedies in history fatefully resonates to the tones of dramatic music performed by the Kronos Quarter. The disintegrating materials emanate impressions of shattered fates.
“We see a record of a war as a series of documents passed along to us like a message in a bottle. None is more powerful than the record of the film itself, made visible by its own deterioration.“ Bill Morrison
