It's a travel through stunning abandoned places without a single narration.. Only the atmospheric sound.
Felt weird right. It's extraordinarily brilliant work. I felt like watching a post-apocalyptic world or some artifacts covered up for years.
The frame starts from The Buzludzha Monument in Bulgaria in autumn and ends in the same place in the snow season.
The forgotten places.. Once they were major landmarks but gradually forgotten. They are like monuments. Each individual shot creates a frisson of desolation that resonates far beyond the facile irony suggested by the movie's title.
Nikolaus Geyrhalter has created something amazing and mind blowing. If you have the patience to watch a one and a half long documentary without a single word and filled with static frames of abandoned places and their atmospheric sounds, you must watch this.
