Accompanying this narration, as in the rest of this stringently composed film essay, we see appropriated images of initially unexplained origin. Only at the end of the work, which was created out of a cooperation with Dan Robert Lahiani, do we learn that the material comes primarily from NASA sources, a geo-information producer, various YouTube channels, and the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial. What connects all of these finds is, on the one hand, the voiceover narrative, which draws a reflective arc based on various crater appearances on earth and in space: depth and abyss as evidence of past moments of violence. </span><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""><font face="Helvetica-LightOblique" class=""><i class="">(Christian Höller)</i></font></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""> </span></font></span><a href="https://www.sixpackfilm.com/en/catalogue/2771/" class="">––></a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class=""><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><font color="#941100" face="Helvetica-Light" class="">Green Years / Shorts</font></span></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><font color="#941100" face="Helvetica-Light" class="">10.10 || 15:30 pm || Cinema São Jorge Sala M.

In under the microscope, these and other famous motifs from the history of science films make their appearance. Just as often, however, it is hard to determine just what is pulsating, bursting, or proliferating in the picture. In her glittering remontage of science films from the 1920s, Michaela Grill does not spread out catalogues of motifs, but aims straight at the fascination of these recordings: their value as educational material was never neatly separated from their aesthetic appeal as a pure cinematic spectacle. </span><font face="Helvetica-LightOblique" class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class=""><i class="">(Joachim Schätz)</i></span></font><span style="font-size: 14px;" class=""> </span></span></font></span><a href="https://www.sixpackfilm.com/en/catalogue/2697/" class="">––></a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class=""><div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><font color="#941100" face="Helvetica-Light" class="">International Shorts Competition</font></span></div><div class=""><span class=""><font color="#941100" face="Helvetica-Light" class=""><div class=""><div class=""><span class=""><div class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica;"><br class=""></div></span></div></div></font></span></div></span></div></div></div></div><div class=""><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><font size="5" class="">Will My Parents Come to See Me </font></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">by Mo Harawe</span></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">AT/DE/SO 2022, 28 min</span></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><img apple-inline="yes" id="8FAA3948-9C15-40CA-8CD1-59BAE2DC19D5" class="" src="cid:C31E98D2-F7AE-4400-B980-6CDBC8C2572F"> <img apple-inline="yes" id="F80211E4-C1FE-4E46-96A4-E3FA3680DC9B" class="" src="cid:9ABA6B1B-7FF1-4A18-BA2A-D0120EC0BBC8"> <img apple-inline="yes" id="8CF586F9-43F3-4C53-B6A6-170458C9B2BD" class="" src="cid:C8219EF4-1970-4B53-B3FD-3119E1C784F2"></div><div class=""><font color="#5e5e5e" class=""><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class="">Somalia.

She’s a performer of the first order, full of ambition, who challenges herself every day, whose dream is to have a number 1 spot as a bodybuilder. Philipp Fussenegger and co-director and DoP Dino Osmanović accompany 47-year-old Tischa to bodybuilding competitions in the USA and Romania and show her training sessions: “Look at you. Look what you've done. Look what you've created. Do you like that? And I will say to myself in the mirror: Yeah, I do like this. [...] I like what I have created.” </span></font></span><font color="#5e5e5e" class=""><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""><font face="Helvetica-LightOblique" class=""><i class="">(Sylvia Szely)</i></font></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""> </span></font><a href="https://www.sixpackfilm.com/en/catalogue/2698/" class="">––></a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class=""><div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><font color="#941100" face="Helvetica-Light" class="">International Documentaries</font></span></div><div class=""><span class=""><font color="#941100" face="Helvetica-Light" class=""><div class=""><div class=""><span class=""><div class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica;"><br class=""></div></span></div></div></font></span></div></span></div></div></div></div><div class=""><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><font size="5" class="">Dirndlschuld </font></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">by Wilbirg Brainin-Donnenberg</span></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">AT 2021, 15 min</span></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><img apple-inline="yes" id="6A2FD2BC-2BDD-433E-94AD-F0D1C6CD5531" class="" src="cid:5F310BC6-A833-43BB-BCE9-27C373765EC5"> <img apple-inline="yes" id="8832C0CA-716A-481B-90A6-CC90FEBA958A" class="" src="cid:3241886A-CF56-4B62-8139-CFE882C2FB5F"> <img apple-inline="yes" id="3A0F2893-9E45-4802-9027-03DE7BB81989" class="" src="cid:27130286-CB9B-4401-A4B4-6BADE01B6C76"></div><div class=""><font color="#5e5e5e" class=""><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class="">The landscape appears in Super-8 shots from vacation photographs.

The term “dirndl guilt”, embroidered in the title insert as if out of naiveté, points to the fact that behind the seemingly innocently beautiful Austrian cultural landscape, an abysmal history is concealed. </span><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""><font face="Helvetica-LightOblique" class=""><i class="">(Bert Rebhandl)</i></font></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""> </span></font><a href="https://www.sixpackfilm.com/en/catalogue/2714/" class="">––></a></div><div class=""><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class=""><div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><font color="#941100" face="Helvetica-Light" class="">International Shorts Competition</font></span></div></span></div></div></div></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class=""></div><div class=""><div class=""><div class=""><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><font size="5" class="">Staging Death </font></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">by Jan Soldat</span></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">AT/DE 2022, 8 min</span></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="font-size: 12px;"><img apple-inline="yes" id="A7D08006-C8BA-43BD-8FAA-F9C8276094DC" class="" src="cid:936ADD80-6AAB-4DB4-84EA-5414CE08FD84"> <img apple-inline="yes" id="7DB8AAD5-3AC0-431F-A40A-2A92E1F162E2" class="" src="cid:8AD8B4BB-6AE6-425E-BD4C-B620191A9CC7"> <img apple-inline="yes" id="95F54117-0944-4344-8193-971FAD72E521" class="" src="cid:4A9B9D02-0B77-47C5-A4B3-1B1883A84533"></div><div class=""><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""><font color="#5e5e5e" class="">Udo Kier dies his way through film history.

He conjures heaven and hell, embarking on a collision course fearlessly bound for the apocalyptic. One could call this highly complex and simultaneously elemental film a darkroom action experiment, an underground blockbuster, or a kinetic painting in a thousand shades of grey. It is woven out of twitching film frames, flashing light, and spectacularly collapsing motifs – a concrete abstract cinema of meta-attractions and frenzy. Train Again is an ecstatic ode to the fragility and explosive force of the medium. </span><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""><font face="Helvetica-LightOblique" class=""><i class="">(Stefan Grissemann)</i></font></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(94, 94, 94); font-size: 14px;" class=""> </span></font><a href="https://www.sixpackfilm.com/en/catalogue/2688/" class="">––></a></div><div class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class=""><div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><font color="#941100" face="Helvetica-Light" class="">Explora Competition</font></span></div></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></span></div></div></div></div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">–––––––––––––––––</div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 36px;" class="">sixpack<b class="">film</b></span></div></font></span></div></span></div></div></div></div><div class=""><a href="https://www.sixpackfilm.com/en/" class=""><b class=""><font size="4" class="">—></font></b></a></div></div></span></div></div></span></div></span></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
