Godard, Fassbinder, Spielberg, and other famous directors answer Wim Wenders ’question:“ Is cinema as a means of language dying, or is it not art that is beginning to disappear? “
When I came to Cannes, I asked my colleagues this question. In Hotel Martizen room 666 was built with a 16mm camera, microphone and voice recorder, as well as a TV with muted sound. There was still a chair and table on which lay a sheet of paper with my question. The directors were informed about my project; they could think about the questions, come whenever they wanted, record what they wanted to say, and turn off the camera themselves, ”Wenders said of the filmmaking process.
