Imagine Your Body - Dirty Control I

Berlin - an occupied city. Public space is firmly in the grip of corporations, with advertising messages that seem to permeate people's stem cells. Biometric photo surveillance controls the flow of their bodies. Right in the middle of that: the flicker of an animated movie from the early eighties, The Last Unicorn, whose unconditional belief in the good was perceived in one's childhood days as a "glittering entity from a movie seat". In the middle of that: a memory of the revolutionary spirit of 1848, when commoners revolted against the all-powerful feudal nobility and the military, and which still haunts history as a "ghost in a disco dress". In the middle of that: Two young women and two young men, exploring the hyper-realistic street grid of the city. Between devotion and defiance, fascination and horror vacui, they stagger through the night, searching for valid forms of resistance, but mostly: against which enemy? Because he might be lodging in our own heads and hearts and might control our program, which imperceptibly has shifted from Second Life to third life, where it appears as the first, the "real life".
