Ivory Coast Rally 1987

Ivory Coast Rally 1987

1987 • 47 min
Always one of the calendar's toughest rallies, this one was no exception and the cameramen covered more miles than the cars to bring viewers of this video a dramatic record of the 30 long special stages through West Africa. Winners of the last three Ivory Coast events, Toyota, had a brand new car to run in the 1987 event, the Supra Turbo. With Bjorn Waldegard and Lars-Eric Torph to drive them, Team Europe certainly looked set to continue Japanese success. But it wasn't just the Toyotas who were in good shape. On their appearance, Volkswagen entered ex-Safari Rally cars for Erwin Weber and Kenneth Eriksson. Nissan had 200SXs for Mike Kirkland, Alain Ambrosino and the vastly experienced Shekhar Mehta. Plunging through the undergrowth, roaring along dried-out lakes, lurching into deep water-holes and racing through sparsely populated villages are all featured in this film.
Acropolis Rally 1987

Acropolis Rally 1987

1987 • 60 min
Always one of the highlights of the international calendar, the Acropolis Rally attracted entries from Audi, Renault, Nissan, Lancia, Volkswagen, Skoda and Polonez. The Lancia Delta HF Turbos, in the hands of Markku Alen, Miki Biasion, Mikael Ericsson and Juha Kankkunen, were expected to provide the main threat, while Audi fielded two new 200 Quattros for Hannu Mikkola and Walter Rohrl, who had finished first and second on the Safari. Kankkunen had won the Acropolis in 1986 on his way to the World Championship, and was confident of giving the Martini Racing Team victory. But on the demanding, dusty back lanes and tracks of the Kamena Vourla, the stronger challenge was thought to be more likely from the big Nissans. This video captures all the excitement of the furious pace of the Acropolis, mixing as it did, dry, flat-out sprints alongside rain-lashed hillsides in the later parts.

Rallye Sanremo 1987

Rallye Sanremo 1987

1987 • 52 min
The Lancia Deltas were expected to win the San Remo Rally, but the question was, which driver? Uncharacteristic weather beset the Italian Riviera and further assisted the four-wheel drive cars, but could Markku Alen win again after the 1986 Peugeot exclusion debacle? Massimo “Miki” Biasion perhaps was the man most likely to upset the hopes of the Finn, and with the Manufacturers’ title already secured by Lancia, there was no particular team orders in operation, or so it seemed. With the patriotic crowds firmly behind the Martini-sponsored Lancia’s the stage was set for a great showdown with Jean Ragnotti in the Renault 11 Turbo and Didier Auriol driving an RED Ford Sierra Cosworth. Britain’s Jimmy McRae used his success in the Tudor Webasto Manx International Rally to land a drive in a second Cosworth, but with five other Lancias in the fray the result was was going to be well-earned by whoever made it to the top step of the podium.

Tungabhadra

Tungabhadra

1987 • 15 min
In Tungabhadra, the images are limited to one place. The use of the same way of filming as well as the repeated images structure the film. They accentuate the atmosphere and character of the landscape. Water is an important recurring theme and the Tungabhadra River is as essential to the film as it is vital to the ancient capital of Vijayanagara. The film constantly returns to the river and the reflection of the enormous rocks in it. Here, the tranquility and disappearance of time are reinforced by the slow panoramic views in which reality and its reflection, the past and the present, merge into abstract patterns of light and shadow.

An I For An I

An I For An I

1987 • 18 min • United States of America
A work of often visceral power, 'An I For An I' is a dynamic cultural statement on the internalization of racism and violence. Andrews assails the cause and effect of institutionalized and mass media exploitation, which he states is "directed at and produced by our culture, attacking the mind and the body." Bold images—a fist punching a stomach, a knife slapping an outstretched palm—convey the impact of what he terms "fighting not to become what we are fighting against." The recurring image and sound of the abdomen being punched are ultimately replaced by Andrews' fist hitting his own hand. In one sequence, he builds an explosive collage of cinematic and media violence, from the mindless warfare of Rambo to blaxploitation and pornography films.
