Review by Constance Cooper orignally published at Doo Bee Doo Bee Doo.
A documentary essay by Marek Matvija and Epos 257 that explores the inner periphery of the city of Prague. The film aims to portray hidden dynamics of the periphery and its rhizomatic structure. A fluid image of one of the most dynamic urban and social spaces, the excluded space, surfaces:
The emergence and perishing of places and improvised homes. Nature, architecture and relicts of human activity intertwine wildly. Possible solutions to problems of contemporary society are spontaneously created (as well as extinguished) due to limited control from the authorities.
