was bleibt ist zweifel …

Das Jahr geht zu Ende und die Zweifel bleiben. Die Illusionen verschwinden. Der Nebel zieht durchs Land. Nicht ein Nebel des Vergessens sondern ein Nebel des Nichts. Alles wird weniger – retten wir was zu retten ist.

MEDIUM CU of Mickey curled up by his bed, writing Mallory a
letter.

MICKEY (V.O.)
Dearest Mallory. My cell is so cold.
At night I get the chills. I pretend
you’re lying next to me, holding me
from behind with your leg draped over
mine and your arms wrapped tightly
around me. I lie in my cell. . .

cruuuuuising …

I’m not in love, so don’t forget it.
It’s just a silly phase I’m going through.
And just because I call you up,
Don’t get me wrong, don’t think you’ve got it made.
I’m not in love, no no, it’s because…
I like to see you, but then again,
That doesn’t mean you mean that much to me.
So if I call you, don’t make a fuss -
Don’t tell your friends about the two of us.

I’m not in love, no no, it’s because…

I keep your picture upon the wall.
It hides a nasty stain that’s lying there.
So don’t you ask me to give it back.
I know you know it doesn’t mean that much to me.
I’m not in love, no no, it’s because…

Ooh, you’ll wait a long time for me.
Ooh, you’ll wait a long time.
I’m not in love, I’m not in love…

bears and tears …

Timothy Treadwell spent thirteen summers in Katmai National Park and Preserve, Alaska. Over time, he believed he was trusted by the bears, who would allow him to approach them, and sometimes even touch them. Treadwell was repeatedly warned by park officials that his interaction with the bears was unsafe to both him and to the bears. „At best he’s misguided,“ Deb Liggett, superintendent at Katmai and Lake Clark national parks, told the Anchorage Daily News in 2001. „At worst, he’s dangerous. If Timothy models unsafe behavior, that ultimately puts bears and other visitors at risk.“ Treadwell filmed his exploits, and used the films to raise public awareness of the problems faced by bears in North America. In 2003, at the end of his thirteenth visit, he and his girlfriend Amie Huguenard were attacked, killed and eaten by a bear.
For Grizzly Man, Herzog used sequences extracted from over 100 hours of video footage shot by Treadwell during the last five years of his life, and conducted interviews with Treadwell’s family and friends, as well as experts and authority figures. Herzog also narrates, and offers his own interpretations of the events. In his narration, he depicts Treadwell as a disturbed man who may have had a deathwish toward the end of his life, but also refuses to condemn him for this.
Grizzly Man premiered at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival. It was released in theaters on August 12, 2005, and was released on DVD in the United States on December 26, 2005. The Discovery Channel aired Grizzly Man on television on February 3, 2006; its 3-hour presentation of the film included a 30-minute companion special that delved deeper into Treadwell’s relationship with the bears and addressed controversies surrounding the film. The DVD release of the film is missing an interview with Treadwell by David Letterman that was shown in the original theatrical release where Letterman jokes that Treadwell will eventually be eaten by a bear; however, the version televised on the Discovery Channel retains this scene.
The film refers to an audio recording of the fatal attack, captured by Treadwell’s video camera, but although Herzog is shown listening to it on earphones, it is not played in the film. In fact, Herzog advises the owner of the tape, Jewel Palovak, a friend of Treadwell who held onto the tape but refused to ever listen to it, to destroy it immediately.

Winterreise …

Das Ende des Todes in Kenia

Franz Brenninger (Sepp Bierbichler) und Leyla (Sibel Kekilli) auf Winterreise in Kenia,
Kenianische Wolken,
Ein Regenbogen
Öffnen das Inn-umschlossene
Wasserburg.

Abgründige Lieder führen
In der Ferne mehr
Als hier Geschäfte und Familie
Ins Nichts.

Sie entstammen der
Verlorenen Zukunft

Und so lernt der Held:
Was wir den Tod nennen,
Ist das Ende des Todes.

Das Filmfest München eröffnete 2006 mit „Winterreise“, einem Film von Hans Steinbichler (Hierankl), der Ende November ins Kino kommt.

Mit unerträglichem Gepolter erschüttert Sepp Bierbichler als Eisenwarenhändler Franz Brenninger, das winterliche Kleinstädtchen Wasserburg, die „Geliebte des Inn“. Dort ist man scheinbar gewöhnt, dass der derbe Geschäftsmann und Gründer des Tennis-Clubs sich gerne daneben benimmt und jedermann als Arschloch bezeichnet. In schmerzhafter Lautstärke überbrüllt Brenninger die Gewissheit, dass ihm längst alle Felle davon schwimmen. Aus verletzter Eitelkeit quält er seine erwachsenen Kinder, die ihm – der Mutter zuliebe – raten sein marodes Geschäft zu verkaufen.

Freundliche Worte findet Brenninger in Wasserburg nur noch für seine Stamm-Prostituierte, seine kranke Frau Martha (Hannah Schygulla) und eine türkische Abiturientin, Sibel Kekilli als Leyla, die ihm bei englischsprachigen Geschäftspartnern übersetzt. Zu ihr fasst er Vertrauen, lässt sich aber gegen ihren Rat auf ein dubioses Geschäft mit Kenianern ein, weil er Geld für die Operation seiner Frau auftreiben will.

Er wird betrogen, steht vor dem Nichts und entschließt sich mit Leyla nach Kenia zu fliegen, um sich sein Geld zurückzuholen. Die junge Frau willigt ein – auch weil Martha sie gebeten hat, auf ihren Mann aufzupassen. Es ist nicht wirklich Aufbruch, vielmehr folgt er einer Zeile aus Franz Schuberts Liederzyklus Winterreise: „Eine Straße muss ich gehen, die noch keiner ging zurück.“

Im Kenia stößt sein Gepolter ins Leere, so dass er seine Umgebung wahrnehmen kann. Er sieht Armut und empfindet die eigene Traurigkeit, ohne dagegen aufzubegehren, spielt und singt schließlich in der Hotelbar eines der depressiven Schubertlieder. Der einstige Musikstudent ist Eisenwarenhändler geworden, weil es „einfach net g’reicht hod“. Trotzdem beeindruckt er Leyla und einen Hotelgast mit seiner Schubert-Interpration so sehr, dass sie ihm helfen seine Straße zu gehen.
