A short collage film inspired by the lettristic movement, created in collaboration by experimental filmmaker Eino Ruutsalo and modernist poet Väinö Kirstinä.
In a bold and original approach to memory, this Lettrist-inspired film maps an anxiety-ridden plane journey from Tokyo to Helsinki without the aid of photographic images. A variety of interventions on the film strip are combined with an atmospheric sound design to create a subjective story of displacement and containment. In an age when experience is increasingly mediated through digital technologies, Taanila seeks out an alternative language in the sensuous surfaces of the celluloid material.
Has the Film Already Started? is a 1951 avant-garde film that delves into the world of lettrism, a radical art movement. The film pushes the boundaries of traditional cinema with its innovative techniques and showcases the creativity and ideology behind lettrist cinema. With poetic and experimental visuals, it challenges the notion of linear storytelling and engages the audience in a unique cinematic experience.
