About the Film

Kangaroo Court is the second part of a multimedia reconstruction of a sequence from Fritz Lang's iconic 1931 film M, initiated by a photographic replica of the scene depicting the illegal trial of a psychopathic child murderer in Berlin’s underground. In the first stage, the Berlin underworld was brought to life by around two hundred costumed extras gathered in the decaying space of a former Zagreb factory. Two cinematographers closely followed the process of their costumed retro-initiation into the Langian universe, which in the film’s "reconstruction of a reconstruction" is further reinforced by a counterpoint of documentary footage and fragments of the original M audio track with dialogue.
