EIGENTLICH EIGENTLICH JANUAR
Germany 2022 – Director: Jan Peters – Original language: German – Subtitles: None – Length: 100 min.
Turn on the camera and go for it. Or is it finely planned? 3-minute reels of exposed film material. Textured flickering images. A train of thought without pause for breath. Whispering that breaks off at an inopportune moment. Collected photos, rearranged, relate simple everyday and major political matters – and it’s the images themselves that are important. A film to be seen over and over again. Ina Borrmann
