In the films of Huillet and Straub the act of speaking becomes an act of resistance. Resistance against the gods or against fascism. Resistance of a text against meaningful interpretation, alleged originality or the most forseeable such as: workers at work, peasants while farming as well as any further representation or abstraction of a common fate. Instead, the workers and peasants are inverted to actors who are speaking in verses. Deleuze mentioned that the act of resistance has two sides: "It is human, and it is also the act of art." Today this seems more urgent than ever: The work of art is resistance against communication.
