Our take

This thrilling, funny documentary chronicles the controversial installation of the famed artist/filmmaker/provocateur Christoph Schlingensief. The shocking prank, made in reaction to Austria’s right-wing politics, is documented through interviews and footage from the installation’s reality TV show.
