Instant Salvation


06min.

    A collage of quotations - image and sound - from the film 'Terminator 2 - Judgement Day' by James Cameron (1991), mixed with sentences out of the 4 gospels of the New Testament, spoken by a female voice. Thyes takes scenes from the film where Christian moral cliche's and myths of the saviour are shown, combines them with texts out of the bible, and interrupts them with product placements, shown in the same film. The "saviours" - Terminator Schwarzenegger and the boy - and the visionary "Madonna" - Sarah, mother of the boy - convert the black scientist to destroy his work and to sacrifice himself: a typically Christian story of colonisation. 2002, Germany;Screenplay, Editing, Graphics, Voice (German), Sound mix: M. Thyes
