ALEXANDER KLUGE AT ARGOS: MEIN JAHRHUNDERT, MEIN TIER!

The film collage entitled Mein Jahrhundert, mein Tier! is part of the five programmes of about 100 minutes long that Kluge compiled and which were first shown at the Venice Film Festival in 2007. These ‘film stories’ occupy the force-field between cinema, art, music and opera. Mein Jahrhundert, mein Tier! is in three parts which are themselves divided into fifteen separate sequences. Kluge drew his source material from his own work, so that he not only traverses his own catalogue – more specifically the period from 1966 to 2007 – but also provides the viewer with a new context within which to view and interpret his works.

Mein Jahrhundert, Mein Tier!
2007, 100’, German spoken, French subtitles.
