Tabu Zone #2

Directed by Leo Schatzl

The Tabu Zone #2 Project (1993-1998), a production for the Festival of the Regions (in Upper Austria), was realised in the village of Münzbach: An area of approximately 1000 square metres was fenced off and excluded from any kind of cultural activity under threat of five years' punishment. A fixed surveillance camera took pictures of the zone (when it worked) at 15-minute intervals. The short film shows a fast-motion selection of the footage taken over the five years.
