This video was developed during Rosenbergers? scholarship in the USA. While in Las Vegas she was subject to the charm of the casino entrances, whose entire glamorous splendor is used to lure gamblers into the individual Casinos. In this city, which has the fastest increasing population in the USA and in which more than 60 per cent of the inhabitants work in the gambling industry, Rosenberger finds a certain melancholy and hopelessness amoung the players and tourist: The video illustrates the song " I need the roulette to make me forget... " with night photographs of the above mentioned entrances and questions answered by the visitors of the Casinos. Las Vegas, a synonym for Casinos, gambling and entertainment, becomes sober in "Good Look" through quotations taken from visitors. (Suess)
