a propos of Mubarak, Hannah...
a thousand pardons
das allierte hauptquartier
hat ihre akte
verloren
but I found
your name
in my father’s
papers
do you realize
thirty years
the age of reason
my friend
we’ve seen worse
it’s long
and it’s short
the gray-green moll
poison Ivy kid
it’s true!
the Berlin wall
is long
and it's short
it is still
Marx’s triumph
how's that?
when an idea enters
into the masses
it becomes a material force
into the masses
it becomes a material force
you can see it
like that
in any case
that’s all over and done with
like that
in any case
that’s all over and done with
what should I
do
oh sorrow
have I dreamed my life
what should I do
do
oh sorrow
have I dreamed my life
what should I do

Those last two shots for some reason make me think of Tarkovsky's Nostalgia, those (flashbacks?) scenes in the classical city with the burning pyre. Or am I misremembering? Is that Sacrifice?
Andy, can you offer the sources for these stills and words?
Pardon my neglect Dave:

COLOSSAL YOUTH (Costa, 2006)
ALLEMAGNE ANNEE 90 NEUF ZERO (Godard, 1990) + text from that film as Lemmy Caution puts together some pieces, admirable synthesis he is.
Daniel, I'm sorry I don't know Tarkovsky at all. I have seen NOSTALGIA but all I remember are some pillars, a woman who looks like Domiziana Giordano in Godard's NOUVELLE VAGUE, a self-immolation (very hammy) and a scratchy record.

Where does one acquire this on video/DVD? Eddie Constantine continuing his Eurospy agent investigations in a 90s Godard image/sound/text/poem (cf NOUVELLE VAGUE) sounds irresistable. Thanks and I'll add this unique blog to my links in resedenciaparaespias land.
rm,
there is a commercial Japanese dvd (Japanese subtitles only) available here: http://www.dvdaf.com/search.html?genre=experimental
(it's the 14th dvd down on the list).
Thanks for the link but I couldn't find your site...
yours,
