Sackl du Printemps
Film by Andrea Salzmann and Doris Uhlich
Abstract
Starting point for „sackl du printemps“ was „Le Sacre du Printemps“ / "The Rite of Spring“ and all the existing
interpretations of this theme. „sackl du printemps“ is the interpretation of a growing choreographer,
dealing with the sacrifice, carrying bags („sackl“ is the austrian expression for bag) of earth.

"A beauty to kneel down before is also the little film „sackl du printemps“ (Austrian for „little spring bag“).
For 20 minutes, Doris Uhlich is displayed piling up 20-kilo bags of flower soil in an empty studio. As Pina Bausch, Vaclav Nijinsky
or Maurice Béjart you may now ask yourself of course: „Why the hell did I think so complicated about it?...“
