Black Rider

Director: Pepe Danquart | Germany 1993 | 12 min | 35mm | German Original Version | with Senta Moira, Paul Outlaw, Klaus Tilsner

In a streetcar, a black man is called a "negro" by an elderly lady and is showered with all kinds of prejudices that she can think of about his skin color. None of the other passengers does anything against the old lady, not even when a ticket inspector gets on. But now the black man sees a chance to take revenge: He snatches the woman's ticket out of her hand and eats it. Since she cannot show the ticket inspector a valid ticket, she has to leave the streetcar and also pay a fine.
