Few of the choreographic performances that Valeska Gert intended for the stage have ever been filmed. Her Tod (Death) is one of them that, as its title suggests, pictures a series of bodily states where the stretching out in time of a silent death rattle depicts an ultimate physical struggle with the inevitable. The interpretation given here forms a free appropriation, elaborated from the only two existing recordings dating from 1925 and 1969.
