Minima Moralia, d. Robert Lee (2005, 85?, video, b/w, English)

A man married a two-headed lady from the circus and went home to tell his family. His mother asked, ?Is she pretty? The man answered, ?Yes and no."
Revealed in six videos spanning fifteen years. Lee?s eloquent and enigmatic monologues connect with all connoisseurs of life?s casually encountered profundities: the weird precision of corny jokes, the interrupted daydream of a subway ride, the sour nights when ?every song on the radio was the worst way I could think of to ask for what I did not yet know how not to want.?
