A Day in the Life of a Consumer(de)
The film shows one day from waking up in the morning all the way to waking up again the next morning. The everyday situations that many commercials are made of, the little dramas that they create and solve through the product or service they sell, are stitched together into one day. This is a film about the everyday in (German, or Western-European) society because the commercials are part of the everyday of most people (everyone who watches television) and they depict an ideal image of society. The film abundantly uses repetition as an editing technique, in visual ways as described above, but also because commercials can be read in different ways. For instance, Brat baking foil shows up at the evening dinner sequence, when an ovendish is put on the table, and again later on in the sequence about going out to a classic concert, because the clip has classic music.

Daughters of Scheherazade(ml)
The film traces the figure of virgin and places her in an amorous encounter with pleasure and pain, body and mind, the historical and the lived. It presents wedding night as a liminal event and projects the liminality of the event onto a psychic landscape. Placed at the edge of time, the nuptial chamber in the film becomes the feminine place of contemplation. The film is a search for the shadowy, nocturnal and the oneiric.
