Mubi's retrospective Angela Schanelec: Showing without Telling is playing from April 5 - June 3, 2018. The director's film Passing Summer (2001) is showing April 5 - May 5, 2018.The films of Angela Schanelec are made up of particles of experience, each work carefully sculpted out of fragmented slices of the everyday. They are an attempt to capture on screen the undifferentiated flow of time—seamless summer days in Berlin, idle lonely hours wandering around Marseilles, the dead time spent in an Orly airport terminal waiting to be carried off somewhere else. Schanelec pleasures in gaps and holes, allowing for narrative excursions, digressions, detours. Two friends sit in a café talking about their future, one is going off to Rome, and the other is staying behind in Berlin. The conversation freely drifts from one topic to another, in the background the rich green of trees; we hear the wind outside, the noise of car traffic.
