| Summary |
With his theater and art actions, as a filmaker and opera director, Christoph Schilingensief (1960-2010) shaped cultural and political discourse in Germany over two decades. His sixth feature, The German Chainsaw Massacre, is the second part of his Germany Trilogy. The news of the fall of the Wall awakens the un-inhibited bloodlust of a West German butcher family. In a neglected hotel kitchen they slaughter citizens of the former GDR; German reunification as a blood-drenched, cannibalistic act of the West incorporating the East. (Source: DVD) |
