no comment - minimundus Austria
1996, 35mm, b/w, 14 min
Directed by: Gustav Deutsch
Collection: Austrian Film Museum
Distributor: Sixpackfilm
In no comment – minimundus AUSTRIA, Gustav Deutsch turns private footage from the years 1953 to 1956 into a memorable collision of two systems of news and identity communication. The good-old black and white newsreel meets Euro News cable TV network, which shows impressions from every conceivable location and crisis center in the world under the logo "no comment." Contribution to the film reel "A History of Images" for "hundertjahrekino." (Text: Claus Philipp – sixpackfilm)
