- Electrifying concert performances and intimate, personal footage showcase the life and talent of singer and actress Grace Jones.
- The Soundmaker piles, in endless iteration, the furnishings of his room into his own personal Tower of Babel, only to dismantle it and return the room to its original state again. His performance is accompanied by a Foley artist, an alter ego looking identical to himself. While the action takes place on the central screen, two screens at the sides show the procedure of sound-making.
- Shows a young man vandalising his apartment which is then assiduously reassembled by his alter ego, only to be destroyed once again. As in the first part of the trilogy, the room is recognisable as a film set and neglects the cinematic effect of illusion. The wordplay of the title refers, like "The Soundmaker" (2004), to a film profession pursued more or less behind the scenes: the stuntman. "Stunned Man" (2004) is the second part of Rosefeldt's "Trilogy of Failure" (2004/2005) in which three different settings draw a picture of our vain entanglement with everyday rituals.
- In contrast to the protagonists of the first two parts of "Trilogy of Failure", appears not split in two but rather as three identical configurations of the alter ego. While two of them fail time and again in their attempts to start up a plane or simulate a parachute jump within their own four walls, the third - stricken with doubt - constantly checks and rechecks his parachute, without ever even coming near a plane. The film combines the Sisyphean motif, apparent throughout the trilogy, with allusions to the tragic story of Icarus, flying too high, falling and dying for his dream.
- Deep in the tropical rainforest of Southeast Asia, a series of incantations invokes the spirits of yore, including those of the nimble, tricksy Kancil (mouse-deer) and the ferocious Buaya (crocodile).
