In this supremely colorful work of visual and sound art, the artist stages the detector both as a "backdrop" for an Indian sarod player and as a painting, whose intensive color scheme makes it the film's actual protagonist. Drawing on the color spectrum of three Technicolor masterpieces from 1936 and 1939 - The Garden of Allah, Gone with the Wind, and The Wizard of Oz -, Lachenmann extracts from them eight central colors. Together with Titian red, they are the material from which Lachenmann creates a dramatic, moving picture, thus reflecting on the development of painting from its high point - the Italian Renaissance - to the early days of color motion picture film.
