7 Ways To Tell You About Him
Director: Whitehall

7 Ways to Tell You About Him is a collaboration between a father and daughter that negotiates the interplay between family home movies with production footage to interrogate the similarities found within their cinematography.
The scripted narration presents 7 observations of my Dad's 8mm footage placed alongside my camera work to decipher more about him through his use of the camera and his cinematic eye. The minimal sound design provides a hint of mood - the voice narration was created to mimic performance to lend an ethereal quality to the read.

The film deals with the manipulation of history in the context of the reconstruction of the Berlin City Palace. Starting from the confusions surrounding an alledged proclamation of a socialist republic from one of its balconies in 1918, the film examines other political events that occurred on balconies. Reenactments of iconic political and cultural events on the original balcony raise questions about authenticity and manipulation.
In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.
