This epic documentary subtly introduces the complex worldview of iconic filmmaker and theoretician Peter Kubelka (born 1934, Vienna). While Kubelka's radical and pioneering body of films is a highly condensed work of about an hour, focusing on the essence of cinema, his legendary lectures often unfold over many hours. These lectures on "what is cinemaâ? and "cooking as an art formâ? are frequently illuminated by presentation of archaeological artefacts from Kubelka's eclectic collection. He considers his ongoing collecting to be an expanded film practice which explores the evolution of humanity.â?¨ Martina Kudlá?ek has carefully woven an open-ended portrait which goes beyond the biographical to reveal fresh insights into the phenomenon of film.
