viennale 2025 #2: “anemone” [surprise movie] by ronan day-lewis. a very visually stunning and slow-paced film with daniel day-lewis, sean bean, and samantha morton. highly recommended.

viennale 2025 #1: “bugonia” by yorgos lanthimos. a very entertaining and slightly bloody film with emma stone, jesse plemons, and aidan delbis. 9f you want to watch the film, find out as little as possible about it beforehand.

viennale 2024 #1: “no other land” by yuval abraham, basel adra, hamdan ballal, and rachel szor. very disturbing documentary about the occupied west bank's area masafer yatta by israeli soldiers and jewish settlers. apart from the moving images of the desperate inhabitants, the intimate talks between yuval abraham, and basel adra are reflecting the hopelessness and powerlessness of the palestinan people living there.
