EarthMoving (ErdBewegung) - A Trilogy by Rainer Komers
EarthMoving is a documentary in three parts. Composed mostly of static shots, with no voice-over or music but with an exquisite attention to visual detail and ambient sound, each film in the trilogy has its own characteristics, but also forms an integral part of the overall composition.
All three films are named after roads: one in Europe, one in North America, one in Asia: B 224 (Germany), Nome Road System (Alaska / USA), and NH 2 (India). But these roads are not the subjects of the films. They are the passageways through different urban and rural landscapes that are marked by varying degrees of human activity. The earth is opened and moved, it is quarried and mined, cultivated and paved over. People and animals move and are moved, so are machines, vehicles and tools. All this activity, whether work or play, carried out by hand or machine, is carefully recorded. But nothing is explained or judged.
