Wienfilm 1896-1976

Released: 1977Runtime: 117 minLanguage: DE

History

This film is a kind of anthology about Vienna, from the invention of film to the present day. The aim is to break down the usual clichéd ""image of Vienna"" such as that found in the traditional ""Vienna Film"" by juxtaposing documentary footage, newly shot material and subjective sequences created by various artists. Individual, self-contained sections of the film gain new meaning within the context of historical material. Familiar sites appear estranged when edited together with historical scenes. Other scenes appear like a persiflage or satirical. The film does not incorporate any commentary whatsoever. It is a collage of diverse materials aimed at conveying a distanced image of Vienna to the viewer
