88 Degrees East / 1989

The coastal "motorway" that links the Icelanders together is usually referred to less euphemistically by continental tourists who are used to asphalt or concrete. But to some Icelandic off-road enthusiasts it is much too smooth and unchallenging. Therefore they decided to cross the country through the uninhabited highlands from the est to the east. 800 kilometers of lava, strong rivers, mud and glaciers required specially adapted vehicles, but when winter suddenly fell with thick snow and serious accidents, the future of even the most carefully prepared expedition was thrown into jeopardy.

The Lake Between the Continents / 2000

Thingvellir actually means “Parliament Grounds”. But extensive scientific research has shown that the Thingvellir area is one of the wonders of the world and is indeed unique. The American plate and the European plate separate exactly at Thingvellir so the area and Lake Thingvallavatn are positioned between two continents. This is shown in detailed video graphic as well as in extensive aerial and close-up shots of the area. At Thingvellir we are standing on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge – we can see the ground split, Thingvellir sink and Lake Thingvallavatn grow. In flora and fauna – here is the meeting place of the East and the West. Lake Thingvallavatn is a very young – no more than 10,000 years old. However, four varieties af Arctic Char have evolved in it, and that is a world wonder. The lake is extremely clear which makes the underwater pictures of the Arctic char in their natural habitat very real.

ERRÓ - North - South - East - West / 2000

A collage-like film that mixes interviews with painter Erró and his collaborators, family and friends with visuals of his paintings and extracts from experimental films made in the sixties with Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray, Carolee Scheemann, Christo, Matta and Adami. Also including many of the luminaries of twentieth century art, the film takes us from Paris and New York to the appropriately surrealistic landscapes of Erró's native Iceland.
