Five years after Farocki’s sudden death in July 2014, we are turning our public screening into a premiere: HARUN FAROCKI – ZWEIMAL connects two different perspectives on the filmmaker. Directors Lothar Schuster (dffb class of 1968) and Ingo Kratisch (dffb class of 1969 and since 1977 cinematographer for many of Farocki’s films) alternate passages from a long conversation with Farocki from 1995 with casual observations recorded by Kratisch and Matthias Rajmann during the shoots for "Die Schöpfer der Einkaufswelten", "Zum Vergleich", "Ernste Spiele" and other films with both photo and video cameras. Two gestures of remembrance, two attempts at grieving. Beforehand, material unearthed in the archive of the Harun Farocki Institute will be shown: text rehearsals for Farocki’s film "Etwas wird sichtbar". With guests Ingo Kratisch and Lothar Schuster.
