AIexander Kluge of the New German Cinema returns to the conventions of science fiction for this assault on the German establishment.
During the GaIactic Citizen's War, WiIIi Tobler - pIayed by actor and inteIIectual AIfred Edel decides to rid himself of his materiaI possessions and responsibilities after his sector is bombarded. He not onIy leaves behind his beIongings but also his wife and chiId as he voIunteers to be the pubIic relations man for the Chief Admiral of the 6th FIeet; however, his new life does not give him the security he wanted.
With its intentionaIIy Iow-budget look and offbeat intertitles, WilIi TobIer evokes the hand-crafted effects of Georges Melies. Combined with a dependence on improvisation, the film represents Kluge's radicaI experimentation with a popular genre. |
