RAW! screening
A radical⇌matter film evening
Thursday 2 June 2022, 8.30 pm
Stadtkino cinema
Karlsplatz 5
1010 Vienna
As part of the opening of the exhibition FROM THERE THROUGH HERE, there was a film screening at Stadtkino im Künstlerhaus consisting of two parts. In part one a selection of current experimental short films and videos by international artists will be presented – films that question gender positions, that explore new forms of non-linear narration and push (image) realities. The urgent issues around racism, misogyny and homophobia are critically repositioned in a way that will, hopefully, begin to allow us to tell and re-tell our stories, our hopes and challenges for today and the future.

PART TWO - Premiere (30 min)
As the second part of the evening the environmental film musical Alles Hat Grenzen Nur Der Mondfisch Nicht by Sylvia Eckermann and Gerald Nestler had its Vienna premiere. In this film nature acts and speaks in a diversity of voices. Surfacing evocatively from micro-and macrocosmic layers, she resonates with water as the source of life and resounds as an exploited resource. She echoes from the trenches of an inverted world and speaks out as a human being. Reverberating through ecological-cultural depths, images, sounds and associations push to light, giving shape to a vision of humanity being in tune with nature.
