Schwechater (EOTWS)

End Of The Week Shorts #3 extract: Schwechater (1958)

Schwechater is somewhat funny when you read a little into it. As most synopsis could tell you, Kubelka, the director, was commissioned to make a commercial for a beer company: Schwechater. He didn't really do this though. He shot people and beer without a viewer then took months to cut together an incomprehensible deconstruction of a beer commercial that, to me, serves as little more than a bit of a middle finger to commercial film.
