Trailer Tricky Women 2008 (2008)

Nothing Happened Today (2007)
Misunderstood and fake memories of a relationship are coming up in the semi-conscious state of being awake and asleep.

Don't Let It All Unravel (2007)
Don't pull the end of the thread. Darn it.

Good Girl (2006)
Lussi is a well behaved little girl. She is always quiet, clever, clean and pretty, Mommy's darling and Daddy's girl. Finally it becomes too much of a good thing, and Lussi finds herself in a situation which demands of her to change her ways.

Death By Scrabble (2007)
A disillusioned man expresses his rage through the medium of scrabble.

...as they pass... (2006)
The film is about the concept of memory. Images from the kahlenberg-hotel/vienna are compiled, deconstructed and de-contextualized. Narrative logic of space and time is ignored. a subjective, emotive interpretation causes the evolution. From collection to process to product. The intersection of these categories show the disassociation between lived and narrated experience, being and representing, which is at the heart of our mediated society.

Sea Dog's Devotion (2008)
Anna Kalus Sea Dog's Devotion strikes its viewers dumb: This silent animation film is wordless, though it is based on words, and develops its form and its theme loosely according to the macabre and subtly necrophilic poem Seemannstreue by Joachim Ringelnatz, in which the first-person narrator tells about burying his deceased bride Alwine in the cold ground, then digging her up, and so on.

Il Davos Capetel (2007)
Mea attempts to concentrate on filling the blank page in front of her. She clears away all audible and visual sources of irritation that might possibly distract her from aim.

Throwaway (2007)
A dinnertime conversation starts with pleasant subjects but some careless remarks lead to an argument.

The Bugs and The Fleas (2007)
The Bugs and The Fleas draws a parallel between the world of humans and the world of insects in a cupboard. Thinking about food availability, child health, etc. … who is better off in the end? Using dark humor and irony, this very short film is a lighthearted way of tackling vey important matters.

Lovesick (2007)
Pain from the heart, never drying tears and turned around heads are difficult to treat, but fortunately not incurable...
