STANGLIRO
animation
Rita Casdia / Italy
Video Stangliro comes from the observation of the film Metropolis by F. Lang.
The images of Lang made me reflect on the representations of the masses are characterized by an emphasis impetuous and mono-directional which is opposed to impotence of the person who does not adhere to this force. In Stangliro, the conflict between the ""collective body"" and the independence of the individual character remains unresolved because neither of the two positions prevails, accentuating the defeat in which both are predestined: the collective body does not generate any creative force and individual character arrives to get an emancipation which manifests itself through the conquest of his incomprehensible language.
