Director Martin Bruch, Reinhilde Condin
Countries
Duration 10 min
Synopsis
home.movie is an extremely mobile film. The camera pans, scans, jolts and races through Martin Bruch’s apartment, never standing still for a moment, and every shot is a pan or tracking shot. Not so long ago Martin Bruch plunged into the busy traffic of Istanbul, Paris and New York on his handbike. He cranked with his hands, filming these journeys with a helmet-mounted camera, and then turned the resulting footage into his radically subjective handbikemovie in 2003. While the filmmaker’s multiple sclerosis no longer permits such wild excursions, his thirst for adventure has remained.
