Motodrom

Jörg Wagner DE, 2006, 9', 35 mm

The world of the hell riders: men and motor bikes, speed and stunts, gasoline and adrenaline. Racing their antique bikes around the wood-panelled walls of a circular tower, the riders appear to defy gravity while the captivated audience peers down from above. Motodrom stylishly captures the atmosphere in beautiful black-and-white imagery using energetic camera work and pulsating sound. A dying fairground attraction portrayed in a thrilling homage at 5000 rpm.
