Liebe, Eifersucht und Rache

Explores the mobile meanings of language in film with the help of sophisticated telecommunications; an aural/oral offering. A quirky short film presented under the (extremely) tongue-in-cheek guise of an educational video for non-native German speakers. The narrative takes place in a gay leather bar, as a man shares a telephone conversation with an escort dressed in drag, looking for sex. A peculiar delight from the famously subversive Michael Brynntrup.
