Cold Spring announced a new release of the soundtrack of this film for next month. It seems that I somehow missed this film which includes music and acting from Genesis P-Orridge, William S. Burroughs, Einstürzende Neubauten and more.
The film is not extremely hard to find, but it is either very expensive or ‘exotic’. I got myself an Italian version from Ebay. It does have the original German language and English subtitles, so that was no problem.
As you can expect the film is fairly experimental with psychedelic scenes, not overly professional and there are some shock elements with sex and violence, drugs, (post)punkers running around, etc. We follow and elderly security agent and a young guy who is experimenting with electronic music. The young man finds out that his music influences people’s behavior. There are some 1984-type elements and some TOPY type experiments (with Neubauten).
I enjoyed the film better than the soundtrack.
