Matter
out of Place
Matter out of Place muses over what happens to the various items that we consume and the planetary resources we utilise. »Where do objects go when they no longer have any use?« a character asks in Werner Herzog’s Stroszek. Nickolaus Geyrhalter replies: to places they don’t belong as he points his perplexed camera at places near and far: to burning rubbish in the Maldives, to a waste plant in Austria; the coast off Greece, to a music festival in the Nevada Desert.
