Syntagma

Year: 1983

Runtime: 18 mins

Language: German

Director: Valie Export

Documentary

The film examines how the body—especially the woman’s body—serves as a focal point for questions of origin, subject‑object relations, political resistance and sexuality. Valie Export’s concept of “body language” offers an ironic response, signaling “the end of the body” and breaking from traditional biological, existential or metaphysical definitions. She moves beyond any notions of unity in body, space or time toward a fragmented realm of doubling, difference and representation.
