German Experimental Films
Bastian Cleve in Person
For the past several years West Germany has been the Scene of the most vigorous, widest-ranging experimental film activity in Europe (and possibly the world). Some of this work was shown at the Cinematheque on the New Wave Super-8 show of Dec. 17, 1983 and the European Avant-Garde show of Nov. 15, 1984. Tonight’s films come from a survey organized by Alf Bold (programmer at The Arsenal in Berlin and guest programmer at the Collective for Living Cinema in NYC). German filmmaker Bastian Cleve will be on hand to introduce the program and discuss his own and the other films afterward.
