This film is to be projected at silent speed: 18 frames per second. Although "Marginalia" has no story, it reflects my concern with the feel of society at a time of ecological stress and cultural change.

Die geile Atmosphäre dieses Konzertes von Bruce Springsteen vom November 2006, daß als Promotour zu seiner CD "We Shall Overcome – The Seeger Sessions" in Dublin ablief, sperrt sich gegen den offenen Blick. Dabei hat dieser Livemitschnitt alles, was einen Springsteen der Neuzeit ausmacht: Blues, Boogie Woogie, Gospel, Country-Folk und –Rock. Altes und neues von Springsteen und traditionelles amerikanisches Liedgut bescherten dem Publikum ein prallvolles Liveerlebnis. Peter Seegers Evergreen "We Shall Overcome" fehlt natürlich nicht bei einer Veranstaltung, die das gute alte Amerika in den Himmel hebt. Das ist Springsteen allein im nicht vorhandenen Scheinwerferlicht, nuschelt sich überzeugend durch den Text und bestätigt allen, die guten Willens sind, daß das Gute am Ende gewinnt.

Gromit hat Geburtstag, und Wallace verblüfft ihn mit einer ganz besonderen Erfindung, einer selbstlaufenden Hose. Die zweite Geburtstagsüberraschung ist nicht weniger kurios: ein neuer Untermieter – ein merkwürdiger Pinguin, an den Gromit nicht nur sein Zimmer, sondern auch die Gunst von Wallace verliert. Doch der Eindringling entpuppt sich als gesuchter Verbrecher, der die „Techno-Hose“ mitsamt dem schlafenden Wallace zu einem Diamanten-Raubzug benutzt. Eine wilde Verfolgungsjagd mit einem verrückten Showdown auf einer Spielzeugeisenbahn beginnt …
Diesmal haben sich Wallace und Gromit zusammengetan, um einen Fensterputzdienst aufzuziehen.
