Brave New World
Der Felsen (2002)
To emphasise the arbitrariness and artificiality of what we’re watching, omniscient male and female voices occasionally interject with dispassionate commentary on the characters and the choices they face. The presence of a Senegalais beach-trader, meanwhile, provides an excuse for the script’s deficiencies: we’re told of traditional African narrative techniques in which storytellers had to weave tales around a series of random items, with dire consequences should their tale run out of steam.
