Description:
Gábor Bódy, investigating filmic language and the experimental paths of film production, achieved his first international success in Baden- Württemberg: in 1976, his diploma film, entitled American Torso, won the first prize of the Mannheim Film Festival. When the director was given the chance in 1980 at the Hungarian Film Factory (MAFILM) to establish an experimental section, another cinematographic periodical publication was born: the idea for Infermental. The international periodical, gathering earlier experimental work and providing a forum for newer works, focused on research of media and articulation, as well as the new functions of filmic language. Its lexicon section stimulated the dispatch of previously unknown filmic compositions. The first edition of Infermental was realised twenty years ago, in 1982; following the death of Bódy, the complete material of the video- periodical was placed in the collection of the ZKM.
