Ingo Petzke

Trying to approach the city – but constant rejection

Nights in a tunnel – lights and speed

Following the run of the water from well to ocean

The cabin in Sweden in summer

Travels in Sicily, Stromboli and Vulcano

Light, clouds and fog.

City lights at night – and maybe dreams

Particularly in the ’70s and early ’80s, Ingo Petzke was a force to reckon with. This was mostly due to his effervescent, encompassing activities in the arena of experimental film: writing and teaching, starting art house cinemas and even festivals, sitting on juries and boards, running CINE PRO – Germany’s only distribution company specialised in experimental film – and even funding cash prices for budding film makers. Last but not least he was a filmmaker in his own right.
