Liebe, Eifersucht und Rache
Love, Jealousy and Revenge explores the flexible meanings of language in film with the help of sophisticated telecommunications – an acoustic-oral offering. An absurd short film, presented under the (extremely) tongue-in-cheek guise of an educational video for non-German speaking learners. The plot is set in a gay leather bar where a man shares a phone conversation with a drag-clad escort on the hunt for sex. A peculiar delight from the notoriously subversive Michael Brynntrup.
