Clapper 1971

Directed by Wojciech Bruszewski

A Klapper is one of the first found footage projects made in Poland. By creating a film from existing representations, Bruszewski formulated the thesis that film relates more to other films (representations) than to any reality lying beyond the medium. A Klapper proves the artist's contention that we are condemned to operate in a sphere of reality that is interpretatively or linguistically transformed.
