The Search

Directed by Ann Bierlich, Henning Christiansen, Ursula Reuter Christiansen, John Davidsen, Peter Engberg, Ole John, Jørgen Leth, Vagn Lundbye, Peter Saske and Camilla Skousen

The Search is the ultimate happening film created by a group of ABCinema members during a camp on the Juttish heath. The film consists of loosely composed sequences. The landscape is the setting for a series of peculiar occurrences in which individual members were free to realize personal ideas, fantasies and themes: a man runs across the heath, shouting, a Molotov cocktail flares on a beach, a man repeatedly falls over, an angel-like woman makes a solitary procession, a burning pine, a man breaking a tree with a shovel, etc.
