The Way Things Go and The Solitary Life of Cranes

The Way Things Go: Inside a very large warehouse, Swiss artists Peter Fischli & David Weiss, (known as “the merry pranksters of contemporary art”) build an enormous and precarious kinetic structure made out of tea kettles, tires, old shoes, balloons, ladders and wooden ramps. Then, with fire, water, gravity and chemistry, they create a spectacular 100-foot long chain reaction performance of physical interactions and chemical reactions. You will be riveted and amazed watching the structure self-destruct. (1987; Switzerland; unrated; live-action; color; 30 minutes)

The Solitary Life Of Cranes: Part city symphony, part visual poem, Eva Weber’s award-winning short documentary is an extraordinary window into the invisible life of a day in a city (London), its patterns and hidden secrets as seen through the eyes of crane drivers working high above city streets. (2008; United Kingdom; unrated; live-action; color; 30 minutes)
