Loading Ludwig

The film takes place in the 21st century. Mimi wakes up and her computer relays the order: "Go back to start. Let´s load Ludwig!" A sort of chase through her past and future begins. A lalographic monument.

(Mara Mattuschka)


In Loading Ludwig, Mattuschka employs mirrors, lenses and glass to dramatize the disfigurement of her face. Mattuschka appears in almost all her films from the 1980s, though in a variety of changing identities and pseudonyms, same of them male – she never seems to be the same individual.

(Christa Blümlinger)
