DIE VERMIETERIN
With Die Vermieterin, Sebastian Brauneis has once again made something totally unique. A hilarious and moving work, in which there is also – and above all – an important social discourse. At the Diagonale’23.
Film director: Sebastian Brauneis
INTERVIEW WITH SEBASTIAN BRAUNEIS
On the occasion of the Diagonale 2021, director Sebastian Brauneis presented his feature film 1 Verabredung im Herbst. Cinema Austriaco had the opportunity to have a chat with him and learn more about his most recent film and his career. Interview by Marina Pavido.
1 VERABREDUNG IM HERBST
In autumn, overripe things fall. And similarly, there seems to be no certainty for the relationships between the protagonists of 1 Verabredung im Herbst. Yet at the same time, Sebastian Brauneis stages the complexity of feelings and interpersonal relationships with an uncommon lightness.
3FREUNDE2FEINDE
3freunde2feinde wants to tell in particular the workers’ uprising and the ‘takeover’ by three long-time friends. In order, then, to remain coherent with what he has staged, Sebastian Brauneis decided to realise his film with a very limited budget (just under €2,500). Still, passion is evident.
