MATTER OUT OF PLACE

Austria 2022 – Director: Nikolaus Geyrhalter – Original language: German – Subtitles: None

Global littering – a hopeless struggle? Seemingly effortlessly, the “matter out of place” – things that are not part of the natural environment – blends into landscapes, overruns beaches, mountain tops and the sea floor, while people and machines work through it in an endless loop. A film of quiet, often disturbing beauty that could not be more alarming. Selime Schauer-Altinbilek
