Udo Kier dies his way through film history. He screams, falls, lies, is cut into pieces, shot or commits suicide. Again and again his empty gaze, again and again his rigid body. In 54 years as an actor, Udo Kier played in more than 170 feature films, 120 series episodes and 50 short films. More than 70 times Udo Kier tried to give an expression to dying and death. In Staging Death, these representations of death merge into a montage of the most diverse shots, film formats, special effects and sound designs. "Directors are now thinking increasingly strained about what new ways they can kill me. […] At some point, somebody would have to make a montage of all my film deaths." Udo Kier (Interview Subway Magazine #145, December 1999)

Il crie, tombe, ment, est découpé en morceaux, abattu ou se suicide. Encore et encore son regard vide, encore et encore son corps rigide. En 54 ans en tant qu'acteur, Udo Kier a joué dans plus de 170 longs métrages, 120 épisodes de séries et 50 courts métrages. Plus de 70 fois, Udo Kier a essayé de donner une expression à la mort. Dans Staging Death, ces représentations de la mort fusionnent dans un montage de plans, de formats de films, d'effets spéciaux et de conceptions sonores les plus divers.

우도 키어보다 아름답게 죽는 사람은 없다. 생생한 몽타주를 통해 수십 개의 배역으로 다채로운 죽음을 맞이하는 그의 모습이 50년의 영화와 TV 역사를 미친듯이 질주한다. 두려움 없는 그를 향한 끝없는 찬사다.
