Film Özeti

„Seit 1987, und das fast drei Dekaden lang, war Kim’s Video ein wahrhaftiges Schatzkästchen für die Cineasten New Yorks. Die kleine Filmwunderwelt, betrieben von dem geheimnisvollen Yongman Kim, beherbergte über fünfzigtausend VHS-Kassetten. Das ist echt der Wahnsinn! In einer Zeit, in der Streaming zu einem alltäglichen Erlebnis geworden ist, wirkt die Vorstellung, durch ein analoges Paradies voller untergegangener Filme zu wandern, fast wie ein Traum. David Redmon und Ashley Sabin nehmen uns mit auf eine faszinierende Reise durch diese außergewöhnliche Welt.

Die Doku „Kim’s Video“ bietet nicht nur einen Einblick in die schier endlose Sammlung von Filmen, sondern erzählt auch die Geschichte eines Mannes, der es geschafft hat, einem ganzen Publikum die Liebe zu seltenen und oft vergessenen Filmperlen näherzubringen. Yongman Kim ist nicht nur ein Ladenbesitzer; er ist ein Sammler, ein Geschichtenerzähler und für viele ein echtes Filmidol. Gezeigt wird, wie er es schaffte, in den schwindelerregend aufkommenden digitalen Zeiten seine Leidenschaft für VHS-Kassetten zu leben und zu teilen. Krass, oder?

Aber das ist noch nicht alles. Die Doku entfaltet sich wie ein spannungsgeladener Thriller – man fragt sich die ganze Zeit: Was passiert, wenn all diese Filme aus dem Regal verschwinden? Was wird von der Kultur übrig bleiben, wenn digitale Strömungen die Schätze ihrer physischen Form berauben? Der Film nimmt die Zuschauer mit in ein emotionales Aufeinandertreffen mit der Vergangenheit und der Vergänglichkeit unserer filmischen Erinnerungen. Der Mix aus Interviews mit Weggefährten, wie dem Kritiker Robert Greene und Schauspielerin Isabel Gillies, gibt dem Ganzen eine ganz persönliche Note.

Doch ob man selbst ein Fan des analogen Kinos ist oder nicht, der Film regt zum Nachdenken an… über das Wertvolle, das wir manchmal für selbstverständlich halten. Die 89 Minuten, die man in diese Doku investiert, sind wie eine Zeitreise durch die Historie des Films. Wenn du also das nächste Mal vor dem Streaming-Dienst sitzt, denk daran, dass irgendwo in einem kleinen Geschäft ein Stück Filmgeschichte auf dich wartet. Und ganz ehrlich? Es wäre echt schade, wenn wir das nicht entdecken würden…“

For almost thirty years, this little haven in New York City became a legend unto itself, amassing a staggering collection of over fifty thousand VHS tapes. It’s honestly mind-blowing to think about the sheer number of rare films that cinephiles had access to, all thanks to this enigmatic figure.

As you watch, you’ll find yourself chuckling at the quirks of Kim while simultaneously grappling with the larger themes of change and impermanence. You’re bound to leave with a feeling of wanting to dig through your own collection of favorite films and… who knows, perhaps even a desire to hold onto something tangible.
