Documentary maker Vincent Monnikendam compiled the film Mother Dao, theturtlelike (1995) from more than 200 titles of archived films of the Dutch-Indies,shot between 1912 to ca. 1933. This film is neither a remake nor an editedversion, but a kind of collage from those hundreds of archival films, all weresilent. Monnikendam re-arranged the images and provided them with a newsound frame, consisting of songs, chantings and poems, in Indonesian, OldJavanese, and Sundanese. This new composition is not just creative but alsoquite provocative. With this arrangement the cineast wanted to show that therewas something not quite right with colonialism. Through the new compositionof images and the sound framing we can observe the power relation betweenthe colonizer and the colonized. There are contrasts between the colonial andthe colonized, literally as well as metaphorically. These contrasts raised somequestions about the colonial discourse
