Be The First To See What You See As You See It, 2004, a looped 16mm film, portrays a young woman walking through a gallery of fine china displayed on pedestals. After toying with the objects, the woman begins gently pushing dishes, cups, and saucers off their stands to smash on the floor. Filmed in slow motion and based in part on the first slow motion test film which showed a man shattering a jug of water, the piece is, in part, an attempt to capture the unrecordable moment of transformation as the objects break into pieces.

George Romero's Martin
0:07:58
Martin is a 1977 horror film written and directed by George A. Romero. The film was shot with a low-budget, filmed entirely on real locations, and many of the supporting cast members were friends and family of the filmmakers. The film is regarded by horror fans as one of the finest B horror films of the 70's and is often cited among Romero's best works. Romero is also on record as saying Martin is his favorite of all his films.

I find women more interesting. They don't interest me just because they're oppressed — it's not that simple. The societal conflicts in women are more interesting because on the one hand women are oppressed, but in my opinion they also provoke this oppression as a result of their position in society, and in turn use it as a terror tactic. -Fassbinder

Runa Islam in conversation with Tine Fischer
0:28:53
TINE: Godard once said, "All good fiction is documentary and all good documentary is fiction". For me this simple statement very beautifully conveys his lifelong struggle to reach some kind of cinematic truth - to grasp some kind of presence through the intense focus on the artificiality of the film itself. Seeing your films for the first time made me think very much of this statement. Can you relate to it?
