Synopsis

The hero of Instructions for a Light and Sound Machine is easy to identify. Walking down the street unknowingly, he suddenly realizes that he is not only subject to the gruesome moods of several spectators but also at the mercy of the filmmaker.

Our take

Using painstakingly artisanal methods, the Austrian avant-gardist turns Sergio Leone’s The Good, the Bad and the Ugly into a black-and-white celluloid spectacular: his “attempt to transform a Roman Western into a Greek tragedy.” A vividly reactive and highly combustible CinemaScope short.
