THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST ESSENTIAL DVD-RELEASES OF 2002, BY THE CONTROVERSIAL SWEDISH TEXT-SOUND POET ÅKE HODELL (1919-2000). "LÅGSNIFF" IS ONLY SCREENED ONCE ON SWEDISH TELEVISION IN 1965, AND THEN CREATING SUCH A STIR THAT THE FILM IMMEDIATELY WAS PUT INTO THE DARK VAULTS OF SVT, WHERE IT HAS BEEN HIDDEN SINCE. NOW THE AMAZING VISUAL RECORDING OF THE EVENT HAS BEEN MADE AVAILABLE ON DVD, 37 YEARS AFTER. THIS EXPERIMENTAL STAGEPLAY IS A MASTERPIECE IN THE USE OF LIVE VOICES, (BY FELLOW LEADING AVANTGARDISTS OF THE TIME, BENGT-EMIL JOHNSON, LEIF NYLÉN A.O.) BLACK AND WHITE CUT UPS AND AN INNOVATIVE USE OF THE CAMERA." [LABEL DESCRIPTION], |
