Video Vertov

In VIDEO VERTOV, director Gerd Conradt tells his grandson stories from more than forty years of his eventful life - based on film and video documents. The film tells the life story of the video pioneer: love and revolution, red flag and meditation - expeditions to distant countries. For his grandson, Gerd Conradt spreads his film and video treasures on the big screen and leaves behind an "electronic" testament to his 50-year career as a film artist. The first love. Economic Miracle Berlin. Marriage and birth of daughter in Rome. Student at the dffb in Berlin. A life between adaptation and provocation. A life in search of knowledge, always interested in the extreme.
