Bezúčelná procházka (Aimless Walk – Spaziergang ins Blaue)
Short Documentary Film, CZ 1930, Schwarzweiß, 9 min., stumm
Diagonale 2021
Director: Alexander Hammid
Pedestrians, strollers, vagabonds—five cinematic
walks lead from Prague (Bezùcelnà prochàzka
– Aimless Walk) to New York (Aimless Walk – Alexander
Hammid), into the hurried bustle of the Big Apple
(Go! Go! Go!), back to Vienna, to a city that doesn’t
exist (A Tale of Two Cities), and end in archive
recordings of Vienna (cityscapes) that develop a life
of their own and contemplate the future perception
of the cities in the digital era.
