A complete stranger's holiday slide show
This is a very personal film, so maybe one shouldn't criticize it too harshly.
But I can't help mentioning that it is boring. Carola Dertnig's text is quite unusual regarding its issue (the decline of the New Economy) but it is read in a way that makes you fall asleep, in a bad English (as the author is Austrian, she could have written and read her text in German - well, obviously she would have had to produce subtitles then). Noone except the filmmaker herself can associate anything with the pictures shown. If it were not, incidentally, about the World Trade Center, the destruction of which (that happened a few months later) creates a bizarre sub-text, the film would be nothing but a complete stranger's holiday slide show.
