Another Of The "Better" Kren "Shorts"...
EVOL66622 April 2006
Warning: Spoilers
I'm no authority on weird art-house cinema - so take what I say regarding this genre with a grain of salt. I've watched several of the Otto Muehl/Kurt Kren short films, and really none of them did anything for me - but at least this one and 10/65 had some sort of "artistic merit" to them...

This is another short film that would look cool cut to some strange heavy techno or industrial music. Black-and-white, no dialogue, no music - and no actual "storyline"...but the visuals look strange and creepy as it appears to be a bunch of strange and quickly edited scenes of a man and woman, a bicycle, something that looks like blood, and lots of shadows and contrast.

I can't really describe these films that well as they're obviously meant to be seen and "experienced". ANA is better than some of the other garbage that these guys did, but it's still nothing to really write home about either. Worth a look to the die-hard art-house fan - if you can track down a copy...5/10
