Baroque Slippages

About This Movie

Baroque Slippages is this enigmatic piece from 1969 that really seems to linger in the shadows. The film, with its intriguing blend of Baroque harpsichord music by Georg Böhm, creates a unique atmosphere that feels almost dreamlike. There’s this quality to the pacing that feels deliberate, drawing you into its world without a clear narrative thread. It was only shown privately and at the Film-Makers’ Cinematheque, which adds to its mystique. The fact that it was never distributed means it's pretty much a ghost in the cinematic landscape, making it all the more fascinating to collectors who crave the obscure and the forgotten.

Baroque Slippages remains an elusive find for collectors, as its limited screenings have left it largely undocumented in mainstream archives. There are no known commercial releases or formats, which adds to its rarity and appeal among those who appreciate the obscure. It stands out as a film that never saw the light of typical distribution channels, making it a curious piece for anyone interested in the more avant-garde side of cinema history.
