Les Miserables

Mara Mattuschka AT, 1987, 2', 16 mm

​In this film, Mattuschka works exclusively with animation. The cheerful cartoon characters Mimi and Max have a bit of a childlike-bisexuality to them, even when the subject seems to be the desire for and the differences from the other sex: "Look at what I've got here," says Mimi when she lifts up her skirt, the reply she gets being, "Is that real...?". (Christa Blüminger, Die Gesichterder Mara Mattuschka, in: (eds.) Alexander Horwath, Lisl Ponger, Gottfried Schlemmer, Avantgardefilm. Österreich. 1950 bis heute, Vienna 1995)
