Atta Atta – Art has broken loose

GER 2003, 962 min

Part one of Schlingensief’s Atta trilogy – set between his parents’ home, an amateur film club and studio.

Synopsis

Once Schlingensief has razed his own biography, ATTA ATTA unveils a campsite with a perch, artificial turf and fake flowers – this is where art has made itself comfy. The rest of ATTA ATTA is Schlingensief’s attempt to break loose from this gilded cage through pure actionism.
