Demons (2000)
Directed by Frank Castorf
Overview
In the last house just behind the western borders of Russia, between Paris/Texas and Korleput/Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Cindy Sherman, Dogma 95 and Duma 2000, Frank Castorf directs his virst video production “Dämonen” (“Demons”) as a sort of post-Soviet-panslavistic panopticon in his own dramaturgy based on Dostojewski’s “Demons” and Camus’ “The Posessed”. All that in set designer Bert Neumann’s industrial-designed bungalow (with swimming pool) built onto forbidding landscape.
