WRITING AND KEEPING SILENT
with the renowed Austrian poet Friederike Mayröcker
Licences for TVstation available.
Synopsis
"I thought it should be a film about keeping silent. Writingand keeping silent. But how do you make something like that?
Maybe for other authors it is possible for them to produce other
things from their minds when they speak, whereas I cannot
produce anything. I don’t want to speak! And this will be the
basis for making our film. We’ll do that!” (F. Mayröcker)
For several years, Carmen Tartarotti accompanied the renowed Austrian poet Friederike Mayröcker, mostly alone – but supported by the Swiss Cinematographer Pio Corradi – just equipped with a camera and a microphone, as was the protagonist's wish. The full consideration of the writer's life situation was the pre-condition for the creation of the film. The result is a sensitive portrait – unspectacular and thus all the more
engaging.
