THIS IS NEW ZEALAND – SHORT CLICHÉS AND CLASSICS
by various directors
New Zealand 1949–1994 55 min.
wed 20 nov 6:00 pm Murnau Filmtheater
Travelogues and promotional films show a long tradition of representing a "100% pure" (white) New Zealand: BEAUTIFUL NEW ZEALAND (1949) and C’MON TO NEW ZEALAND (1970) lurk with breathtaking shots of the scenery. The image of being harmless becomes hard to overcome. The classics THE LOUNGE BAR (1988) and LEMMING AID (1994) undercut it and NEW ZEALAND IS YOURS illustrates that the "Kiwis" have a night life, too.
