22/69 Happy-End is this fascinating little piece that really captures a unique experimental cinema vibe. Kren's approach, shooting parts of mainstream films without looking through the viewfinder, gives it this raw, unfiltered quality. The way he supplements the lost sexual climax with Otto Muehl's Libi Aktion adds an unexpected layer of commentary and disruption. It's a collage of sorts, mixing voyeurism with a kind of anarchic spirit, something that sets it apart from typical narrative films of its time. The pacing can feel disjointed, but that's part of its charm β it invites you into a different kind of viewing experience, one that lingers in your mind long after seeing it.
Finding a copy of 22/69 Happy-End can be a bit tricky, as it hasn't seen widespread distribution. Its experimental nature and the obscurity of Kren as a director mean that it often slips under the radar for many collectors. However, those who appreciate avant-garde cinema or Kren's work specifically often seek it out, making it a notable item among niche collectors looking for something off the beaten path.
