Country: AUSTRIA Year: 2011 Duration: 5 mins. |
Synopsis: The film opens with a close-up of a closed eye. Each blink births episodes of life and love, with comical exaggerations, like birds eating sperm cells and beetles fighting after mating. A smiling, pot-bellied Buddha tumbles from the eye and into the lotus position while a couple making passionate love gets entangled in acrobatic dance formations. The search for “sensuous survival” comes to an end when a galloping udder equipped with a drag parachute vanishes into nothingness. |

Lezzieflick
![]() |
Country: AUSTRIA Year: 2008 Duration: 7 mins. |
Synopsis: ‘Lezzieflick’ (2008) is a deconstructive remix of stereotypical representations of lesbian sex in hetero porn. The body forms become fluid, continually changing, and the women no longer appear to be available as the passive object of voyeuristic desire. The content of the image, as well as the usual position of the subject, are shifted. The material of the film appears to dissolve in satisfaction. Is there such a thing as beautiful hardcore camera work? |

G3N3SIS
![]() |
Country: GREECE Year: 2024 Duration: 9 mins. |
Synopsis: ‘G3N3SIS’ (2024) is an experimental AI-assisted animation that reimagines mythology from a female perspective. It starts with the creation of the world and black Eve by a female deity, follows women’s exile by the jealous biblical god, their revolution and liberation, the creation of a new type of men and ends with the apotheosis of the androgynous Hermaphrodite. The style blends post-Renaissance, hyperrealism, metaphysical elements, mystical symbolism, and dark eroticism. |

Les Misérables
![]() |
Country: AUSTRIA Year: 1987 Duration: 2 mins. |
Synopsis: Cartoon characters Mimi and Max have a bit of a childlike-bisexuality to them, even when the subject is the desire for the other sex. Interestingly, the characters are all voiced by the same voice actor, and their representation is channeled into a single and fictive form of expression. The children’s song ‘Eyes and ears can easily be lost’ and the fight about which is better - to be blind or deaf - refers to the movie-goer’s basic perceptive organs, as well as the author’s. |

Animal Locomotion

Country: AUSTRIA Year: 2023 Duration: 5 mins. |
Synopsis: Eadweard Muybridge and his studies on Animal Locomotion (1887) are the starting point of the reflections on motivation and propulsion, standstill and movement as well as their recording. A fever dream. The film was created as a reflection on why we as humans are still trying to record movements while feverishly dreaming of artificial intelligence, or conversely as a reflection on why we talk about artificial intelligence while still feverishly dreaming of recording ourselves in motion. |
