- Overview
- In "Wachau", Manfred Neuwirth reformulates a documentary film about the grape harvest by isolating 15 moments from the original, slowing them down extremely and arranging them strictly symmetrically on the screen in quadruplicate. One by one - bottom left, top left, top right, bottom right - the image gently fades in until it can briefly be seen in all four positions, then just as gently fades out again in the same order.
- How it feels
- Melancholic and eerie. Slow-burning and demanding.
