The presentation 7 filmer: Harun Farocki shows a program of seven films spread over seven days, focusing on one film each day. As Kunstnernes Hus is only open six days a week, an asymmetry arises where the films' screenings are shifted by one day over the exhibition period. The films are a selection from an extensive production that shows a connection loosely linked to Kunstnernes Hus' current exhibition Victor Lind - Contemporary Memory. Harun Farocki's film production here complements Lind's question about how the writing of history can help to see a political trauma in a new light. This is shown in Farocki through a reflection on how images and visual information through the medium of film live on in the world.

This becomes particularly evident in the award-winning film Respite, with a first screening date of 11 December. The film is based on found footage that shows activities in a transit camp for prisoners in Westerbork, Holland in 1944. The theme of Respite is followed up and developed in the lecture Found Footage Films and the Ethics of Appropriation: Harun Farocki's Respite by Thomas Elsaesser at Kunstnernes Hus on Saturday 15 December. Elsaesser is a professor at the Department of Media and Culture, University of Amsterdam, and has published several renowned film theory texts based on works by directors such as Harun Farocki, Rainer Werner Fassbinder and Michael Haneke.

The presentation of Harun Farocki is a collaboration between artistic director Mats Stjernstedt and the Point Center for Contemporary Art in Nicosia, which is Cyprus' first international art gallery. Point Center for the Arts opens in December with another film program by Harun Farocki.
