Experimental Canada 2011 Dialogue in English and Russian Mennonite (Plaut’dietsch), with no translation or subtitles. 0:07:50
This work intervenes in video footage of a Russian Mennonite family gathering in 1980s southern Manitoba.
Directly translated as 'to have become English', woa enjelsch looks at the locations between belonging and outsider, the liminal spaces within linguistic and cultural identities, and the contradictions of a static faithfulness to an eternally shifting culture.
