“These animated improvisations (plasticine, mosaic, faces, objects, people etc.) were made in the 70’s by Agnes Hay in Hungary.
Her films are not particularly good but they do make all other films look bad. (Why doesn’t everyone make films like hers? Why do Agnes Hay’s films have the force of novelty, making one feel that it should be forbidden to watch anything else? It is because the content of her films plants certain transcendental intimations in the human consciousness, confronting one with time and motion, challenging evidence. Those of a meditative disposition will not go to see any other kind of film because her kind does not smack of illusion, rather it highlights the fact that all things are illusory.” -Miklos Erdely.
