Short movie. In 1929 Luis Buñuel und Salvador Dalí presen a short movie called "Un chien andalou". A terrible movie in my opinion but it made history for its basic idea to connect film scenes that do not form a consistent story and that are not sorted in terms of a story that makes sense. But I always disliked how the creaters where still forced to stress the momentum of non-matching and also how they forced themselves under the necessity to "shock" ultimatly giving the movie not the freedom to reach complete artistic freedom.Later Robert Wilson better succeeded in retrieving this artistic freedom in his theatrical works. Now I tried to create this short movie to achieve the artistic freedom aied for by Buñuel's and Dalí's epochal work 1929. Don't think of this movie as meaning something or telling you a story. The short movie ais for being free of necessities like story or meaning. Just enjoy the feel of the scenes independent of each other and then enjoy the overall feeling of the set of scenes that I combined to put the viewer in an uplifting and useful mood.
