Copy Shop

Copy Shop (2001)

Wordless story about a man who awakes in his bed wearing his clothes (including a check vest). He rises, washes his face, combs his hair, and heads for work across the street at a copy shop. He inadvertently makes a photocopy of his hand, and then the machine beings turning out copies of photographs of himself, the street outside, and his apartment. He unplugs the copier and heads home. He repeats the scene we saw earlier. Copies of himself emerge from bed; baffled, he watches them go to work. Soon, it seems, he's part of a society in which everyone looks like him and wears check vest. Can he get things back to normal?

Copy Shop is a 2001 Austrian short film written and directed by Virgil Widrich. The twelve-minute black-and-white film is composed of nearly 18,000 photocopied frames, creating a visual parable on duplication and loss of identity in the digital age. It was screened at more than 750 film festivals worldwide, received 43 international awards, and was nominated for both the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film and the European Film Award for Best Short Film in 2002.

Production

Copy Shop was produced in Vienna in 2000–2001 by the Virgil Widrich Film- und Multimediaproduktions G.m.b.H.

The film was shot digitally, and every single frame was printed out in black and white on a laser printer, then re-filmed frame by frame with a 35 mm animation camera.

This hybrid technique transforms the process of copying itself into the subject of the film.

The production was supported by the Austrian Federal Chancellery (Arts Division), the Province of Salzburg, the City of Vienna, and the ORF.

Production design was by Joachim Luetke, cinematography by Martin Putz, and music and sound design by Alexander Zlamal.
