Intro from CPH DOX homepage
The 100 year old film images sparkle and crackle with an expressive fury which almost looks like a reaction to what they depict This year it is 100 year since the First World War the first modern war and the first to be documented in moving images forever destroyed any notion of the Western worlds continued progress under the banner of reason and industrialisation 1914 was the modern eras absolute year zero A landmark year which is here marked in a cinematic collaboration between the renowned American filmmaker Bill Morrison and the string quartet Kronos Quartet who have recorded the original score by the Serbian composer Aleksandra Vrebalov For over a decade Morrison has specialised in bringing early film footage back to the cinema often in a state where the film reels physical foundation is in a state of dissolution which gives the images a literally unique cinematic feel that simply must be experienced Beyond Zero 1914 1918 consists entirely of archive footage that is presented naked and without explanatory text or speech and Morrisons special methods lift the neverbeforeseen footage from the devastating war to downright dizzying heights as lost figures trudge through scarred landscapes towards a certain death shrouded in a thundering photochemical inferno of scratches dents flashing lights and blurred bubbles
