Friday 13 November – Sunday 6 December 2009

Harun Farocki is one of Germany's most respected filmmakers, artists and writers. Farocki's essay films question the production and perception of images, decoding the medium of film and examining how audiovisual culture relates to politics, technology and war.

Respite (2007, 40 min) resurrects footage shot by Rudolf Breslauer, an inmate of a Dutch transit camp for Jews during the second world war. The images we see of incoming and outgoing trains, prisoners being processed and daily camp life are set to Farocki’s silent intertitle commentary.
The screening is followed by a conversation between Farocki and Georges Didi-Huberman.
Programme duration 90 min
