[ENG] Harun Farocki plunders 40 years of advertising films, which he orchestrates to constitute an ironic 24 hours in the lives of typical consumers. He mixes different colors, points, various "welfare ideologies" to hold a mirror of our times, values, concerns, hopes.
This collage of joyous and chaotic "wonderful images" deconstructs not only the domestic landmarks that block our daily lives, but also gives way to a humor out of tune with the tradition of brechtià distancing. (Andrei Ujica)
[CAST] Harun Farocki utiliza para este trabajo 40 años de películas publicitarias, que edita para constituir unas 24 horas irónicas en la vida de los consumidores típicos. Mezclando diferentes colores, épocas, variadas "ideologías del bienestar" nos muestra un reflejo de nuestro tiempo, valores, preocupaciones y esperanzas. Este collage de "hermosas imágenes", alegres y caóticas, deconstruye no solo los puntos de referencia domésticos de nuestras vidas cotidianas, sino que también dan rienda suelta a un humor en la tradición del distanciamiento brechtiano.
