brings together artist Uwe Wittwer's inkjet prints and poet Jürg Halter's writing in a multilayered dialogue. Inspired by Japanese director Kenji Mizoguchi's legendary movie Ugetsu Monogatari (Rain Moon Tales), they intend to trigger a new, imaginary film in the mind of the reader. Artist and poet have created a subtle play with hints, fragments, comments, and further narratives. Some of Wittwer's images are illustrative. Others reject a direct reading. Likewise, Halter's short poems in some cases are unambiguous and simple, and in some cases are equivocal and elude immediate access. This book explores questions such as, "When does humanity turn into inhumanity?" and "Is comfort to be found in art?"
