The Golden Gate

Directed by Jürgen Reble

The film consists of sequences from what appear to be social documentary, people at a zoo, in a park, in the street in the snow; “nature” films of insects and reptiles; original, found and stock footage with no apparent associative or narrative function, tinged through the filter of Reble’s chemical treatments that gives the images a painterly quality, an arbitrary resonant abstraction. - Senses of Cinema
