Journeys from Berlin/1971

In intensive sessions with her psychiatrist, Annette Michelson indulges in stream-of-consciousness rambling, augmented by fragmentary surrealistic shots culled from modern Berlin and revolutionary Russia. Leon Trotsky makes a "guest appearance" as an obscene phone caller! Rainer invites the viewer not only to observe but also to participate vicariously in Annette's mental side trips, choreographing her imagery as deftly as she previously staged her numbers at San Francisco's Judson Dance Theater
