Amina Handke adapts the play “Kaspar”, written by her father Peter Handke, as an absurd gold scale film. As is well known, words are placed on such a weighing device, sometimes so heavy that they drag everything into the ground and sometimes so light that they simply fly away. The actress Libgart Schwarz, mother of the director, loses her words during the rehearsals for “Kaspar”. In her linguistic confusion, dreamlike spaces open up that begin to reassemble cinematic realities and sentences. The result is a playful, inner-family metafiction that simultaneously resists the dictates of prefabricated words. (PATRICK HOLZAPFEL)
