How it feels

A group of filmmakers take turns filming each other with Super 8 cameras in a Danish deer park. The footage is assembled as a collective, fragmentary work where the act of filming itself becomes the subject.

What happens

Dyrehavefilmen er en film instrueret af Jørgen Leth, Ole John. Kollektivfilm. Fragmentariske super 8-optagelser fra Dyrehaven med ABCinemas medlemmer som fotografer og hermed instruktører. Filmen har i kraft af gruppens optagelser af hinanden, der filmer, en stærkt selvreflekterende karakter (fra Anders Leifers bog "Også i dag oplevede jeg noget ... Samtaler med Jørgen Leth", 1999).
