Electricity (2007)

A Bohemian architectural dance film with an edge The inner city landscape of Prague its beautifully integrated accretion of structures 1000 years history repressed but unbombed is viewed through the rhomboidal electricitycatchers on the tops of its moving trams Trams define the rhythm of the city amp so their looped noises define the rhythm of this film As contrapuntal fixed point the Zizkov Towerbuilt by the Soviets for signaljamming broadcasts from the West amp looking like an abouttolaunch ICBMis accompanied by actual Cold War shortwave spy broadcasts
