"L'arraivée" or "The Arrival" is a 2-minute black-and-white short film from 1999, so this one is also over 15 years old already. It is one of the more recent works of Austrian experimental filmmaker Peter Tscherkassky. But it is also as weak as everything else I have seen from him. Early on, I thought this was his take on the famous action in very old silent films that depict arriving trains, but now I am not sure anymore what this was exactly. Oh well, actually I am sure that this was a very disappointing watch and I am particularly glad this was over around the 2-minute mark already. I am yet to see a work from the filmmaker that I find at least mediocre. This one here is another example of a failure. Yes I don't like experimental films, but I have seen many from this genre from previous decades that were extremely superior to this one here. stay far far away.
