Description
"Kurt Kren's achievements in editing short films in his early works were several years ahead of the rest of the (cinematographic) world, both in form and content. Kurt Kren was a pioneer: an avant-gardist in the classic and best sense of the term. A filmmaker who knows how to think in images like few others in this profession, and who realized these images in films that are among the 'most beautiful' and 'most important' in the history of cinema."
— Peter Tscherkassky
