Super-8 films and video

Personal show by filmmaker Dagie Brundert,experimental film and video,
curated by Klaus W. Eisenlohr;
with later songs of singer-songwriter Jo Knox

Since her first encounter with filmmaking back at Art School ­ she first studied design in Krefeld, then film at Hochschule der Künste Berlin (now University of the Arts), at the very first experimental film class in Berlin led by Prof. W. Ramsbott ­ Dagie Brundert loves Super-8 and has worked almost exclusively with it. The small film gauge is still her preferred recording material, although nowadays, she is editing and post-producing digitally. “It was always the small things I was interested in, and which I wanted to manipulate ­ the handy materials”

After the screening, a special treat for the audience will follow:
Jo Knox (Berlin), who contributed her song “Meshell” to Dagie’s brand new film “704” about the Los Angeles bus no. 704, will unpack her guitar, play, and sing her songs to everybody’s enjoyment.
