He Who Hopes, Dies Singing 1999 Directed by Alexander Kluge Wer immer hofft, stirbt singend

Wer immer hofft stirbt singend is a bagatelle bordering on the burlesque, in which Kluge combines (historical) visual material and nostalgic images of various disasters with very graphically elaborated title card texts. The somewhat awkward Mexican Banda music underlines the bittersweet character of the work.
