So, 'Kino 81' is this fascinating little documentary that feels like a time capsule for film aficionados. It’s all about the magazine issue put together by the people at FILMKRITIK for WDR’s film department. The tone is a bit cerebral, almost contemplative, as it dives into the nuances of film criticism and its place in the cinematic landscape of the early '80s. There’s a certain stillness to it, reflective of the era, and the pacing can feel leisurely, which allows you to really soak in the discussions and visuals. It’s distinctive in how it encapsulates the passion of critics at that time, while also giving you a peek into the filmmaking and publishing processes that often get overlooked.
