Overview
A disaster film. Danger is omnipresent, but vague and concentrated on its verbal invocation. From a total of 417 minutes of material from a seven-part science fiction production, Björn Kämmerer and Karoline Meiberger have distilled the quintessence of the command structure. Like in a piece of concrete music, appellative signal words (« General », « Sir! », « Commander! ») accelerate, culminating in the coda: « Catastrophe! ». New territory of retroactive science fiction: the directors' cut. »
