Peter Rocha
Germany, 1997, 30 Min
The film follows the steps involved in the donning of a traditional costume. Based on Helmut Kurjo's narrations everyday observations, staged scenes, photos of a bygone age and Sorbian songs, it transports us to a world that, at the time of filming, is almost but a mere memory and at times strikes the viewer as a dream. DEFA director Peter Rocha, chronicler of the “pain of Lusatia” (THE PAIN OF LUSATIA, FFC 2006, 2017), contrasts a near-extinct rural life with alarming images of the scarred landscape in the area around Schwarze Pumpe: the area that was once home to Kurjo's fields.
