Perspective Of Power
Alles macht einen schmutzigen Eindruck, auch die formale Gestaltung; hier scheint jemand etwas hingerotzt zu haben. Vielleicht hat dieser Mensch auch nur etwas ausgespuckt. A girl takes photos of a dead body. A boy kills lots of men. A young woman revels in pictures of people who have been violently and brutally murdered. She enjoys processing these images with digital effects. Rape, murder, the joys of splattering blood. A video in the tradition of Japan's violent underground, playing bizarre games with clichés, tickling evil fancies. An anarchic treatment of images and film sequences which occasionally makes a pretence of narration only to shatter every vestige of it. The double screen seems to place the horror at a safer distance, but in fact only redoubles its force. It all conveys a dirty impression, even the formal composition, as if someone had spat it all out. Maybe that is all this guy was trying to do.
