The Power of Emotion & Serpentine Gallery Program

CHF 26.00 / EUR 23.00

The Power of Emotion explains that emotion isn't to be confused with sentimentality. Emotion is ancient and more powerful than any art form. The film looks at young couples who run into difficulties as they try to translate their experiences of love into clear decision-making. A woman who has shot her husband provides a judge with a puzzle. Those who love can bring the dead back to life by means of co-operation. That's the focus of the opera, «The Power Plant of Emotions» and the «Opera of the 20th Century» cinema.

The Serpentine Gallery Program is a treasure trove of TV films. «He who hopes, dies singing» and other true stories. Additionally the DVD offers early short films and texts by Alexander Kluge.
