This film was produced as an advertisement spot for the Viennese city newspaper Falter. It is composed of five very quickly cut images, which were recorded in the subway.

Sponsored by a weekly arts & entertainment newspaper in Vienna, Kren filmed a Vienna subway station a-frame-at-a-time with an authentic hand-cranked, silent era 35mm movie camera. Displaying an unerring sense of mathematical precision, Kren meticulously followed a detailed “script” which orchestrated the multiple views and framings seen in the film.
