Oskar Fischinger - Musik für die Augen

Directed by Harald Pulch

Long before there were computer-animated images, Oskar Fischinger compiled abstract forms, pulsating color patterns and moving animations and combined them with music in short experimental films. In this documentary, Harald Pulch sheds light on the life and work of the "father of the video clip" and also shows an exclusive interview from 1993 with Elfriede Fischinger, the filmmaker's widow and colleague. In it, she talks about the couple's life as artists, who first worked in Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin and finally in Hollywood.
