Under Control: Odyssey nuclear plant images between research and inventory, documentation in CinemaScope. "Under Control" by Volker Sattel starts as pure science fiction: does best in wide-screen images He appears by artificial control rooms and hovers over diffuse technical marvels. However, the truth of the voluptuous appearance, in his documentary has only saddle various nuclear power plants in Germany and Austria visited, where he reclaims a fascinating insight. And the camera is everywhere, watching conferences, work processes, employees, nor would most like to photograph well split atoms. As the essay documentaries by Harun Farocki also done away with conventional saddle help hinder any off-text, no clear line and not over-dose background information his sober, almost considerate view. The camera coagulates the narrative force. Information is what it captures. If they listen to the conversations of the people and from those with smooth pans once again adopted, one must inevitably follow their views. Powerful images, a situation of helplessness, documentation under caution. The cut represents the corresponding order is restored, well imagine that "Under Control" there next to his rhythm and in general found only on the form and structure. Last visited saddle not only plants but also authorities in the nuclear industry, nuclear power plants interim and final storage, and finally abandoned. A chronological chain of images, from which one the gradual may derive the end of nuclear energy. The film retains a commentary on the current discourse, however, evaluations are not saddle thing. His pictures of control panels, cooling towers and storage towers are between fascination and surprise - surprise is good, control better.
