„The most important thing about Fluxus is – nobody knows, what it is. There has to be at least something, the experts don’t understand.“ (Robert Watts, 1978)
The "Fluxus Internationalen Festspiele Neuester Musik" in Wiesbaden 1962, initiated by George Macunias, are considered birth and peak of Fluxus at the same time. On the occasion of the movement’s 50th birthday, which never wanted to be one, in the center of the documentary are some of the protagonists still alive and quite vital. The journey with and to the Fluxus pioneers of the 1960s leads to highly topical questions important for society as a whole. Fluxus for the first time defined and put to test contemporary ways of working, among them dislimitation of art, intermediality and international networking – back then without today’s technical possibilities!
