Odessa

Thomas Baumann, Martin Kaltner

Matteo Fraterno, Martin Kaltner

A grand, absurd drama: The crew of a confiscated cruise ship is forced to spend seven years in a foreign harbor. Left to their own designs by a bankrupt company and ignored by the Ukrainian authorities, the sailors on the Odessa come to terms with their fate in the Bay of Naples.

An enlightened response to Austria's breathless cinema, a cinematic ricochet with trance flavour enhancers. Cinema which evidently appears to come from a completely different world precisely because its manner of dealing with this world is so uncompromising.

Many Pe Many Pa

Thomas Baumann, Martin Kaltner

Philippe (Many Pe) and Filippo (Many Pa) make windows. A letter and a package are dropped off. The one man is a glazier and the other works with steel and neon. Scissors/stone/paper - who wins?

Geh!

Thomas Baumann, Norbert Trummer

Norbert Trummer, Martin Kaltner

This film, recorded in real time, depicts two actors on a walk through Vienna. One person is carrying a nylon bag with provisions for their journey, while the other person is carrying a film screen. The places that they walk through are only of peripheral meaning, in which pace changes again and again through the use of slapstick.

The primary method of crossing distances is walking. In this case, two persons once again walk on Vienna's periphery. A winter snowball fight interrupts the actors' journey. A film in the finest Dada or Beckett tradition.

Hutagang

Thomas Baumann, Martin Kaltner

24 hours in the life of a person who comes home from work, spends and has spent the night with friends. The day, and the work, begin with murmur and rumor.
