Hi, all you babel-listers,
Patti will play in a movie directed by Christoph Schlingensief. They met in Bayreuth, where he directed Wagner's opera "Parzival". Patti wrote an essay in the German weekly "Zeit" about the performance. Schlingensief is wellknown as an infant terrible in the German art scene and they seem to like each other.
The film shall merge "Parzival" and 9/11 in Namibia to "African Twin Towers", a combination of documentary and fiction.
For more information: www.schlingensief.com/weblog/index.php?p=31
maybe this time Patti gets the opportunity to play "the killer", although Schlingensief is not George Franju...
anyway - that might become an exciting movie.
Kind regards
Birgit
