Price: EUR 32,90

A reading and picture book playing with film history(ies) and what it can mean to stop time (filmically): 99 individual pictures from 99 works by 99 filmmakers since 1945, each selected and described by international writers, artists and journalists from the fields of criticism, film theory, and academia. Following a timecode fortuitously structured by the selected pictures, a topography of Austrian cinema unfolds over the decades between feature films, experiments, and documentations.
