TIME'S UP - AN EXPERIMENT IN TIME MANAGEMENT (Germany)
by Jan Peters and Marie-Catherine Theiler
An accident tears the two filmmakers out of their hectic daily schedule and becomes
the trigger for their very personal experiment with time. The framework for this is
provided by Marie-Catherine's pregnancy during which the directors leave no stone
unturned in order to examine with humour and irony how today's society - and, above
all, they themselves - cope with the subject of 'time'.

MILLTOWN, MONTANA (Germany)
by Rainer Komers
Carefully composed images, impressive sound collages, no dialogues: "Milltown,
Montana" is an essayistic expedition through a magnificent landscape tormented by
man. With a superb visual language, Rainer Komers documents a region which was
once the largest mining area of the USA and now seems to be in a phase of postindustrial
standstill.
