PEPPERMINTA by Pipilotti Rist. 2009. 84 min.
In an explosion of color and whimsy, beloved Swiss video artist Pipilotti Rist’s sole venture into feature filmmaking follows the adventures of Pepperminta, a joyful anarchist on a mission to save the world from itself. Captured in extreme wide angles and rainbow sequences of sensory overload, Pepperminta is a deliciously inventive reminder not to take anything too seriously.
