Ein Märchen aus alten Zeiten (2001)

The title comes from a poem of a German poet Heine The 911 event was so beyond my comprehension you can understand and react to a death of one or two persons but I could not react to the death of 2500 people it was an abstraction a fairy tale thats why I framed my 911 film shot from my roof with the fairytale with the image watching this story the story of 911 Like any other fairy tale coming from the past by this girl this child dreaming listening and dreaming about the tales coming from the past Jonas Mekas
