Stories From the Old Ruin

Stories From the Old Ruin

1986 • 15 min
Irit Batsry’s hallucinatory soundtrack and disturbing images create an eerie and all too realistic narrative of destruction and ruin. This is a faked report of an imaginary investigation of an event that never happened. Batsry’s purposeful avoidance of documentary only serves to give her allusions to impending disaster more force. Batsry borrows her images largely from the commercial media; pictures of a sprinter, two Oriental women fending off the camera with their hands, a figure skater; all dissolve and are reconstructed electronically so that their ordinariness and lifeless stillness seem a cover for erotic passions and rapid motion. -lux.org.uk

Goblins' Chants

Goblins' Chants

1986 • 5 min
"Goblin's Chants" is a starkly reductive and hypnotic work, structured around a single charged image. Klaus vom Bruch's torso is inscribed with a rotating computer generated construction (in real: a handmade wooden model put on an ordinary turntable); creating a composite image that metaphorically describes a collapse of the private and public space of vitual media. This spectacle of technology imposed on the human body is accompanied by a haunting soundtrack of traditional songs of the Pygmies. Ultimately, the artist turns his butt onto the viewer, communicating with fundamental body language.
Jerusalem: Within These Walls

Jerusalem: Within These Walls

1986 • 54 min
Jerusalem's Old City is a tiny enclave where some of history's greatest dramas have been enacted. Busy and colorful, it is the fountainhead of three major religions, the site of many of the world's most venerated shrines, and home to 26,000 people of profoundly different cultures who live side by side in a fragile peace. JERUSALEM: WITHIN THESE WALLS offers a kaleidoscopic view of the city and its people as they are today -- the remarkable outcome of 3,000 years of history, hope and faith.
Ethna's Suite, So Long

Ethna's Suite, So Long

1986 • 15 min
This film portrait of Ethna Duffy (and myself by implication) summarizes several years between us. It consists of images collected between 1974 and 1980 edited in relation to a soundtrack that consists of an audio landscape of telephonic interruptions as they are interwoven with Ethna's extemporaneous observations, recorded on a telephone answering machine between 1977 and 1978. This film reflects our mutual love and "lunacy" which was often deflected and by inference indirectly located. PW

Harold Bell Wright: The Miracle of The Ozarks

1986 • 26 min
This is the story of Harold Bell Wright who as an eleven year old orphaned boy was cast out into the world to survive on his own. Alone and destitute, he was possessed of an iron will to survive with only his God to lean on. He rose out of this crushing poverty to become America's number one Best Selling Author. The first author ever to sell one million copies of a single book. This amazing and inspiring biography of Harold Bell Wright was written and produced by his son, Norman Wright. His grandson, Michael Wright portrays him as an adult and his great grandson, Jason Wright is the young Mr. Wright. Harold Bell Wright began his adult life as a country pastor bringing the Word of God in the Bible to those who could not read. He continued his ministry in his books, never losing sight of the Christian ethic he wanted to impart to his readers. They responded by making him the most popular author of his time.

Australian Bush

Australian Bush

1986 • 24 min • Australia
“When you walk through the Bush, you hardly ever see any animals—they tend to take cover long before you actually come anywhere near them. Like a lizard, or a wallaby, which sees you and disappears. So I decided to make a film where I’d insert them… from photographs…into footage of the Bush. To make this work physically and filmically I had to invent and construct my matte-box image shifter. I wanted the animals, the sentinels of the Bush, to appear and disappear…the Bush to be living and moving. With the image shifter I matted them in and matted them out…what they now call ‘morphing’. This film was very popular with people who didn’t know much about avant-garde film—it was easy to watch, and they could get a lot of information about the type of flora and fauna in this country.” (Paul Winkler)
