Kasseler Dokumentarfilm- und Videofest

Eisenberg’s latest film THE UNSTABLE OBJECT is an elegant essay on contemporary models of production. Interested in the ways “things” affect both producer and consumer, Eisenberg travels to a state-of-the-art Volkswagen factory in Dresden, Germany, to Chicago Lighthouse Industries, where blind workers produce wall clocks for federal government offices; and to a deafening cymbal factory in Istanbul, Turkey. Through a series of sequences sympathetic to each site and subject, THE UNSTABLE OBJECT quietly probes the relationships our global economy creates between individuals around the world.
