American Cinematographer - March 2010 - Cover4

ONFILM C H R I S T I A N B E R G E R, ACC “Great painters are able, with a few brushstrokes, to provoke our brains into replacing missing information. It’s like an ignition to the imagination. That is the power to be artistic, to create emotion. The technical is a way to get where we want to go, but what’s most interesting is how each individual uses it. Technology is always changing, but the artistic is a more archaic perspective. I am convinced that a director of photography today only finds the best result if he or she ﬁnds the most modest and efﬁcient tool for the situation. What endures is a strong need for humans to communicate, to tell their stories. Film captures images with a quality that is higher than ever, and much higher than the digital formats. We should never work under the dictate of technique. It’s easy to say but difﬁcult to do.” Christian Berger’s ﬁfth collaboration with director Michael Haneke, Das Weisse Band (The White Ribbon), was awarded the Palme d’Or at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival and the 2009 European Film Award. The film also earned Berger best cinematography honors from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, New York Film Critics Circle and at the Movieline/Hamilton Behind the Camera Awards. Their previous credits include Benny’s Video, 71 Fragmente einer Chronologie des Zufalls (71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance), La Pianiste (The Piano Teacher), and Caché (Hidden). Berger’s other credits include Amos Gitai’s Disengagement, Luc Bondy’s Ne fais pas ça, and Markus Heltschl’s Der gläserne Blick (Dead Man’s Memories). Berger also directed the features Rafﬂ and Hanna Monster, Liebling. For an extended interview with Christian Berger, visit www.kodak.com/go/onﬁlm.
