CERTAIN DOUBTS OF WILLIAM KENTRIDGE
51'18 Brazil, 2000
Produced by Associação Cultural Videobrasil
Directed by Alex Gabassi
Soundtrack by Philip Miller

Films, drawing, installations, theatre, opera: William Kentridge, one of the most important names in South African contemporary art, easily glides between different media, in a combination of references and techniques that render his work unique. In this documentary, which follows him through Johannesburg and Brazil, he speaks of the impact of the landscape and the social contradictions on his work, and comments on the life of characters like Felix Teitlebaum, his alter ego. Shot in digital video and in highly grainy super-8 stock, in a reference to the author's charcoal drawings, the film shows the setting up of a previously unseen installation featuring virtual fish and a real car, commissioned in 2000 by Associação Cultural Videobrasil for the Contemporary African Art Show in São Paulo.
