IFFR 2020
In one of his earliest student works, Farocki attempts to parody the Berlin beer brand Kindl through critical analysis of their advertising strategy. Posters for the Kindl brewery in the stands of Berlin's sports arena show beer drinkers through the ages, from an organ grinder at the turn of the 20th century to a fashionable 'Beatle wannabe'.
