Humorous, philosophical and full of energy, the award-winning collage film 'And the King said: What a fantastic device!' travels through the history of moving images. From the first films and photographs to contemporary Hollywood, the iPhone, Instagram, and over 45 billion cameras worldwide. The directing duo looks at the contradictions of contemporary visual culture with love and irony, including propaganda films about Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un, the behind-the-scenes filming of ISIS fighters in Yemen, Russian youths performing adrenaline-filled tricks on the tops of the world's tallest buildings, and Leni Riefenstahl's master courses in camera techniques. The film makes you think about what it means to be constantly surrounded by competing images and to look at the modern visual world with fresh eyes, in which we live.
