Rolle-2, part of a film series by Dietmar Brehm, is the second roll shot after the first was lost. It features a close study of the filmmaker’s wife’s facial expressions, contrasted with a man performing ambiguous gestures—holding a phone receiver and inflating his belly. Fleeting shots of catalog flowers appear briefly. The film explores the absurdity and unconscious nature of everyday actions, reflecting Brehm’s experimental style and interest in fragmented, symbolic imagery.
