"Duell" - Spielberg's movie debut is known as a classic piece of film. The story is amazingly simple: an anonymous, psychotic truck-driver chases a guy in his old chevy through the desert, trying to kill him in an accident.

Director Oliver Sommer adapted this theme in our video for "No Speech". During our US-Tour, we met him in Las Vegas where we had a final talk about the script.

Standing in front of the Desert Cafe. Looks like it already had it's best days in the 50's.
It's situated a liitle off of Highway 91 and there are only few who find the way to this dusty little town that is actually a Post office, a
gas station, the cafe and some truck-wrecks.

It takes six hands and one chief to make a clean chevy look like it ran for miles and miles through the desert.

The band walks out of the cafe, gets into the car and drives off with a dusty wheely.
Sandra's diving premiere!!! It's true, she doesn't have a driving license!
She had a quick introduction by Stefan before the video-shooting. Though opinions differ whether Stefan himself actually has a license or is only permitted to drive in the county of Göttingen, because his father is police officer there, Sandra drove like a young godess. She even managed 80% of the stunt scenes.

Apropos truck - the crew had some trouble providing one when the rental company quit their contract on the morning of the
shooting day. Not that easy to arrange a new one in the desert between L.A. and Vegas. The one that arrived later turned out to be orange rather than black and needed some painting to look more "evil".

The evil, black truck chases us for miles and miles over the desert road and bumps into our car several times, making Sandra's
attempts to escape pretty useless.

The "good" Guanos are fighting with the truck, and meanwhile the "bad" ones rock hard in the trailer.



What a scene! An old coppermine was scouted for the showdown and the truck chases our car directly towards the edge of the cliff.


Oh oh! Bad luck! Standing almost on the edge now with the truck pushing right behind us we try to brake and escape but there's nothing we can do against that big Mack-Truck.







No chance. The truck pushes our chevy all the way into a better world and the take ends in a big fireball.






Everybody thinks the "good" are dead now but surprise, surprise: those are not the bad but the good Apes jumping out of the trailer, finishing the most exciting Videoshoot we certainly had yet. Hope you like it!
