Gernot Wieland, "Hello, my name is..."...and..."Yes, I'm fine." (2016)
In this film, Gernot Wieland links personal narratives, historic reports and scientific facts, fictional and real elements with tragic and comic events, generating a sense of uncanny, mostly in an ironic or absurd way. It also deals with parrots, the history of drones, psychotherapeutic settings, analyses of powerlessness and the artist’s Catholic childhood, complexifying notions of interpretation of memory.
