Occupation and the making of Occupation, 2002

video

GermanEnglish

A nighttime scene is to be filmed. Held together by a rectangle marked out on the ground, 200 extras await their cues, and yet the direction and production staffs are in conflict with one another. The atmosphere grows increasingly tense. The restless crowd develops a life of its own as the film team attempts to keep the situation under control.
