Blick aus dem harmonischen Gefängnis
1982,16 mm, color, 11 min Music: Anthony Moore.
"...Nekes, just under forty years of age and almost a doyen in comparison to the young scene around him, has half-naked youths dance through iron bars in frozen communication rituals. Technically perfect, Nekes addresses himself with images of stimulating beauty to the Filmbüro Nordrhein-Westfalen. Is he right in doing so?
Probably not, yet this concerns not only Nordrhein-Westfalen.
If one is concerned with the shackles of recalcitrant interview films, then the boundaries of the Federal States must fall..." (Michael Schmitz, Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, April 1983; a retrospective on the 15. Informationstage in Oberhausen).
