In 2015, this short excerpt was pulled from Permanent Revolution for a screening series that Khary Simon and Nicolas Wagner put together for their magazine ‘Crush’ (and so was saved from the film’s fatal corrupt digital master).
This scene was located in the middle of the film. I saw this set and these costumes as a loose reconstruction of Oskar Schlemmer’s dance performances.
