Wunder der Wirklichkeit

Deutschland 2015-2017 Dokumentarfilm

Summary

Miracles of Reality

On 22nd of December 1991, a plane crashed into a mountain near Heidelberg and 28 people died. Among the victims were the filmmaker Martin Kirchberger and his team, the art group Cinema Concetta. They died while shooting the satirical short film "Bunkerlow". 25 years later, director Thomas Frickel, a friend of Kirchberger’s, dedicates his documentary film "Wunder der Wirklichkeit ("Miracles of Reality") to Cinema Concetta and portrays their work by using original film and audio footage, as well as interviews. In the rural area around Rüsselsheim, the art group caused irritation with Fluxus-like actions as well as with pseudo-documentary short films. Kirchberger’s mantra: "Maybe everything was in vain, but it made us feel good." In "Wunder der Wirklichkeit", Frickel traces the group’s playful exploration of the boundaries of reality and fiction by showing the charme but also the tragedy of their story.
