Vienna Table Trip looks almost like a timeless fairy tale, like a little reality where past and present meet to create something unique. Meanwhile, delicate minimalist music accompanies us on the “journey”. A great master of animation film, Virgil Widrich has once again made a little gem of Austrian avant-garde cinema.
Copy Shop is present and future. The loss of identity and subjectivity due to modern media. Copy Shop is the loss of all certainty, in a world where we no longer know what is true and what is not.
Make/Real is one of the many possible forms of cinema that could not exist without film history. A hymn to the seventh art, but also to modernity and to all that the near future could offer us.
In This Movie is a Gift, Anja Salomonowitz is not afraid to find new languages, to reinvent and rediscover herself. All this results in a true, feather-light hymn to life, one of the director’s most intimate and personal works. A film that accepts and elaborates on every aspect of life in an intelligent and never predictable way. Including death. At the Viennale 2019.
