Hausbenzin [2004]
Medium: Comicbook/ Animation 5'49'' audio/ b&w.
Description:
Hausbenzin is a comic book and an animation. Hausbenzin is a rocket in
the pocket, a mini drama, bordering upon the potential for explosion.
The story focuses on the moments when a child, in this case a teenager,
develops the need for privacy and fights for it. Adults often destroy these attempts
of independence. A banal event - going to a party - triggers a serious power
struggle, accompanied by manipulation, shame and mutual hurt feelings - a
never ending game.
Is this mother driven by parental guidance, or is she being a
control freak?
