This Desirable Device (Ovaj poželjni stroj (Овај пожељни строј); Dieses erwünschte Gerät)

Treating language as a device of meaning, the film deals with the transposable power that comes with the language itself – the worth that comes from the device, rather than from the meaning. Being given the opportunity to work on attractive and expensive 16mm film tape, yet in a restrictive political climate, filmmaker wonders about all the transactions she made when emigrating to Germany - what does one have to give up, to be able to live in the “promised land?”  Seeing the analogue film as language device also, the film circles back on its own means of communication, questioning the use of film tape in current time.
