Statement Regisseur
A photo from a newspaper marked the beginning of this project. It was the summer of 2011: rows upon rows of plastic chairs in a desert landscape, in the warm light of the dawning sun. Impressions of the founding of the Republic of South Sudan. For me, it was the first time I was struck with such a conscious awareness of the monobloc, which immediately prompted a question: What in the world gave birth to this ugly pile of plastic – and why?Other films took priority, among them 3 feature-length documentaries, because their topics were more current or production queries came in from TV broadcasters. But – taking this plastic chair as a basis – the idea of making a documentary whose form is quite original and highly entertaining at the same time never let go of its hold on me again.
MONOBLOC is the kind of film you set your heart on making. This is one of the reasons why we have plotted the documentary as a quest for clues. I can be seen as author and director on-screen in the process as well, becoming active in front of the camera, often together with my team. In other words, a very personal film that pursues my questions about this chair.
Yet even so, we’re convinced that MONOBLOC can reach many people. Because the film doesn’t revolve solely around the curious tale of a piece of furniture that everyone is familiar with. MONOBLOC sets the stage for a discussion of fundamental issues and beliefs that clears the way for a look at the new: at new impressions and new views of this world and the order within it.
