Synopsis
The essay film is inspired by Virginia Wolfs heroine Orlando, who experiences both social decline and advancement over three centuries and changes gender in between. The clash that emerges from the collision of Soviet and Nazi archival material with the affecting distorted images of German ordinariness is deeply illuminating because it operates in an anachronistic manner – private memories are intimately intertwined with collective dystopias. Through the prism of literature, a re-examination of the surviving archival heritage takes place, marginalized experiences, previously overlooked are brought to the center.
