A Document Without People. Movie Fairy Tale About the Steppe Wolf

Summary/Abstract: The author of the article discusses Peter Liechti’s documentary film The Sound of Insects – Record of a Mummy (2009), confronting it with the animal fairy tale genre: not human figures, antagonistic relationship, indefinite time, forest space. The director who radically experiments with the animal fairy tale convention, speaks on the subject of human condition and death. The hero of the film is a contemporary “incarnation” of Harry Haller, a steppe wolf who beliefs that he is incompatible with the world.
