Über den Abgrund geneigt - Leben und Sterben des Johannes R. Becher

Experimental and political video art piece based on the poem 'Prick' by American poet Ed Madden, that uses the image of Saint Sebastian to explore the attacks of the Conservatives on the LGBT community. The word prick acquires a deeper definition especially when teenagers commit suicide after nasty words are being thrown at them like arrows. But like Sebastian, who actually survived his ordeal, things will get better when we expose and deal with these people for what they are: bigots.

An experiment in which the frames gradually and rhythmically compose, like the bricks of a wall, the structure of a visual poem that recovers states, thoughts and emotions of a real past that is deflected by memories towards a chimerical dimension. The absurd rigors of the communist past ethereally jumble, so diluting their corrosive substance through images which strangely detach themselves from the reality of those years. The experiences of the child, the young man and the adult, in fact the personification of phase perception, chaotically blend, suspended in an imaginary world, supported however by elements that could not be more real.

The story centers arround a 26 year old filmmaker from Germany who tells how the action of his father transforming into a woman affected both his film making and his life in general.
