His return to the competition after several selections (for example, Instructions for a Light and Sound Machine, which received a Special Jury Mention in the 2006 Lab Competition and is part of the 20th Anniversary of the Lab box set, see page 92) is almost logically accompanied by the return of Bill Morrison (2014 Lab Juror) with whom he shares a love of analog film.
The events quickly unfold, the images spiral out of control and lose their certainty, the soundtrack crosses over the film perforations, color positive film turns negative, the material is gutted as he even gives (among others) a nod to Kubrick’s The Shining. The big screen experience is always something to behold with the Viennese master of avant-garde cinema, who offers a radical reinterpretation in CinemaScope: a train arrives and collides with its own reflection. With Train Again, Peter Tscherkassy re-enters the light by taking us back to the beginning, to a time when the Lumière brothers filmed the arrival of a train. The festival is back in the theaters, and the pure light of the projector will once again illuminate the audience.
