H2EEF 39 "In Search of North" with Ingo Petzke

Filmmaker Ingo Petzke joins H2EEF from Germany to discuss his body of film work. Made mostly between the 70s and 80s, these films arguably straddle two dominant schools of filmmaking in Germany at this time. There is a clear focus on material as an art material, as well as a focus on film as personal vision, often showing an interest in Scandinavian, Nordic landscapes. He also discusses other works including his close friends Dore O., Werner Nekes and Bastian Clevé. 

Ingo stopped making films in the 80s, but remains a busy film programmer, writer and teacher with an internationally renowned career. 

Many of Ingo’s films are available online from Re: Voir and also on DVD from his own distribution company Redavocado Film (www.redavocadofilm.com).

Artists discussed in this film include:
Bastian Clevé
David Larcher
Werner Nekes
Dore O.
