Two Pence Magic
Directed by Hans Richter
A playful, dadaist silent montage that uses rapid juxtaposition of everyday and dramatic imagery to interrogate meaning and perception through visual collage.
Two Penny Magic (Zweigroschenzauber) starting off with a little magic trick. It then presents an array of images from swimmers, bicyclers, murderers, airplanes in flight, boxers, lovers, runners, becoming in the end a collection of images in a magazine.
