Der junge Eskimo

Der junge Eskimo 1986 Directed by Peter Volkart

A visual epic about subliminal longings and the aesthetics of suffering. A work of atmospheric images and sounds dedicated to the retina, the eardrum and the soul. The young Inuit - the sea seems to have washed him up one day, to some place forgotten by God and time. Time, which is commonly called life, sticks to his fingers. Three steps behind him leaps the parasite of eternal suffering. The story begins in this enraptured sphere, focusing on a series of episodes in which the young man's fate takes its course: in a strange world that knows its own laws.
