The film assumes this same calm as it undertakes its journey via amateur film recordings gathered from archives in Austria, Italy, Holland and England, "traveling" from Boston to Italy, from the USA to Austria´s Burgenland, from Maryland to Greece, between Vienna, Sydney and Switzerland. The film employs a broad media-archeological array in a form of letter writing: from first color home movies to video and digital cell phone images and skype. The family recordings that structure the film are like moving postcards, telling of various lives and lifepaths from the 20th century. But they also speak to the medium of film as a tool of everyday life, to a function of bridging distances that came to make the "family of man" possible as a community, its biographies increasingly marked by migratory patterns. <br class="">In Film is. (1-6), Deutsch proceeded with extreme poetic precision to tell an alternative history of cinema in the style of a picture atlas constituted by scientific films. The endeavor of how we live is comparable, however it utilizes the most private ephemera of film practice. This film feels entirely different because of its contemplative air which aptly corresponds to its subject matter. You can lean back and enjoy this journey completely relaxed, trusting the storyteller, just watching the life of the other unfolding before your eyes in real time while catching correspondences and analyses hidden in every moment that touch on depths not superficially treated but highlighted between the images – in their relation to one another. The material that Deutsch has gathered is recurringly interwoven by the trip of Moroccan Mostafa Tabbou from his new home in Holland to Morocco, a journey undertaken by Gustav Deutsch with his wife Hanna Schimek and which itself becomes a home movie. And so the film produces a community not only between various people from various places, but also establishes a timeless togetherness, allowing generations of filmmakers to speak to one another and via the medium of the movie screen, to us. <i class="">(Alejandro Bachmann)</i><br class=""><br class=""><font size="4" class="">premiere dates:</font><br class=""><br class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class=""><i class="">Sunday/Dimanche 8 oct 2017 | 19h00<br class="">Cineplex Odeon Quartier SALLE 10<br class="">LES NOUVEAUX ALCHIMISTES</i></span><br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class=""><i class="">Tuesday/Mardi 10 oct 2017 | 17h15<br class="">Cineplex Odeon Quartier SALLE 16<br class="">LES NOUVEAUX ALCHIMISTES</i></span><br class=""><br class="">—————————</div><div dir="auto" style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><br class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class="">Furthermore we are happy to announce the selection of two already internationally successful experimental shorts at FNC 2017, both being screened within LES NOUVEAUX ALCHEMISTES-section:</span></div><div dir="auto" style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class=""><br class=""></span><br class=""><span style="font-size: 36px;" class="">FUDDY DUDDY </span><span style="font-size: 14px;" class="">AT 2016, 5 min</span><div class=""><font size="4" class="">by Siegfried Fruhauf</font></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="D4B4C02C-31A6-4FAD-8447-6541EA569CB5" class="" src="cid:5D32D771-9598-4E31-BC65-AFEB8A4FD762@local"></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Is the image we see on screen controlled by order or is it an eruption of visual chaos? Siegfried A. Fruhauf presents a volatile and frenetically-changing painting of a grid of squares that fill the image space at different angles and in varying sizes and quantities. Drawing on the tradition of structural film, this experiment sees the director working with the materiality and space of the movie, for which the solid contours of the lines cease to be sufficient. The result is a fundamentally compelling, almost physical experience. <i class="">(Hubert Poul, Karlovy Vary Int.

An image of water whose surface reflects the surrounding light. The hands of a woman holding a purse in the gloom of a city street. A snow-covered mountain landscape with massive trees reached by a cable lift. Through the sensitive composition of the film, these seemingly banal images begin to speak and reveal an inner world, an inward dream landscape of anxiety, alienation, isolation, and desire. Entrancing poetry relies on a delicate grasp but it’s impossible to resist its inner magic. <i class="">(Hubert Poul, Karlovy Vary Int.
