Synopsis:

Fernando Birri's ORG is a monstrous, three-hour long film that has only been screened extremely rarely since it premiered at the Venice Film Festival in 1979. The story of ORG is based on an ancient Indian legend, which Thomas Mann also drew on for his story 'The Transposed Heads.' But above all, ORG is an experiment in perception that features over 26,000 cuts and some 700 audio tracks. ORG was partly funded by leading actor Mario Girotti (Terence Hill). Viewing the film today provides a kaleidoscopic insight into the experimental, aesthetic and political trends of the 1970s. Birri bequeathed Arsenal - Institut für Film und Videokunst e.V. a 35-mm print of his film in 1991. It was digitised as part of the "Living Archive" project. A DVD of the film is also being released to coincide with the Berlinale.
