Getting work:

nestled deep in Ken Jacob's STAR SPANGLED TO DEATH
is another film by James Otis - ON YOUR OWN (1981)
a cut-up found film shot in an employment agency (circa the 1960s?)
with editing structured around the repeated words "job" "jobs"
and "training ".


Getting to work:

Mark Ostrowski's LA LINEA (2012)
(Spanish for "Bus Line")

brings to my mind
Chris Marker
as well as
William Carlos Williams's poem
THE RED WHEELBARROW.

"Human beings have the need to believe in something,
interact socially, and love each other. If not, you'd die of
a broken heart or a heart attack. There's no doubt about
what someone needs for personal well-being..."

Dear Frameworkers,

I would like to build a list of video art and films which look at aspects, concepts and realities of work. One piece I came across recently is Johan van der Keuken's Temps/Travail (1999).

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Insa
