Märtini Brös – Dance Like it is OK

Director: Anna Karina Birkenstock | Germany 2002 | 4 min | SD Video | German Original Version

Here is a very successful music video from HfG history. Rotated on VIVA, MTV, etc. According to the professors' verdict (see trailer), the industry is being fought with its own weapons. Consumer criticism as a Trojan horse with a six-pack – but it works surprisingly well... How do you make someone realize that what they are watching is bullshit? According to the verdict of our panel of experts (see trailer) in the film review, we are witnessing social criticism in which the industry is being beaten with its own weapons. Or perhaps this production was successful because it shows what we all want to see when we watch MTV. Spookily contrasting claims – as always, the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle.
