An almost psychedelically luminous invocation of the Battle of Borodino set to Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture (1880). As Reisenbüchler put it: the film deals with “self-destruction in the power struggle for the conquest of empires”.
A gaudy vision of our modern age’s gruesome grimness, done as a funky picture-collage animation. As per Reisenbüchler, the film deals with man’s preoccupation with progress, technology, and pollution. A masterpiece of sadly lasting relevance.
