Table Scenes

About This Movie

Table Scenes is this strange, almost disorienting experience from 1979. The whole premise—a group of blindfolded participants at a table, navigating their way through a meal while listening to garbled German dialogue—is so bizarre, yet oddly fascinating. It really plays with the senses, the tension in the air is palpable as they fumble around trying to find food. The atmosphere is thick with unease, and the pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative at times. There’s something distinctly unique about how it subverts the typical dining experience, making you ponder sensory perception. The performances, even amidst the abstract setup, carry an intriguing weight. It's definitely one of those films that lingers, you know?

Table Scenes has had limited releases over the years, making original formats somewhat scarce. It’s not the most mainstream title, which adds to its underground charm among collectors. Interest tends to come from those who appreciate experimental cinema, or those chasing down the oddities of 1970s film culture. It's a curious piece, often discussed among niche circles, but you won't find it in every collection.
