ZEVEN FILMS VAN HENRI PLAAT

ZEVEN FILMS VAN HENRI PLAAT

The versatile Dutch artist, photographer and film maker Henri Plaat traveled a lot. He visited Greece, the Middle-East, India and Latin America, where remains of ‘places of history’, fascinated him. He filmed such locations and like in his drawings and paintings fantasy and reality supplemented each other in 8mm and 16mm footage. Plaat made some forty different films full of fragments of reality, sometimes absurd, surreal or melancholic. This DVD presents seven of Plaat’s films, typical for his output.
- El Cardenal (1972).
- Postcards (1973)
- Now That You Are Gone (1977).
- Fragments of Decay (1983).
- 2nd War Hats (1986).
- A Fleeting Dream
