from freeze to flow

Borg Bad Leonfelden (AT)

Activities that induce a flow state increase mental well-being in uncertain times. Designing, creating and coding were a welcome change in the lockdown and the possibility to create something in the rigidity. Students of the BORG Bad Leonfelden developed a 3D model of the school in a collaborative project, which can be explored on your own at the festival.

Deeper

Jakob Loidl, Ines Pfeffer, Fabian Derfler, Maximilian Strobl, Raphael Weinmesser, Sandra Kerschner, Michael Gastecker, Elisa Holzer, Amelie Guger, Jana Gastecker, Endrit Rexhepi

The film "deeper" shows different opinions from the point of view of young people about the current situation in Austria. Both political decisions and corona measures are presented critically and sometimes exaggerated. In the short film one accompanies a student in his everyday life at home and at school. To illustrate the contrast between the present and the time before the pandemic, flashbacks to moments in the past are incorporated into the film.

Social Intelligence Agency (S.I.A.)

Landestheater Linz (AT)

The digital revolution is in full swing. Between smartphone and tablet, between VR and AI, the longing rises in us for what our modern technology cannot (yet) offer: Social intelligence. Because without it, the world threatens to become a dark place. A group of teenagers and young adults are tackling this problem, dealing with current issues and ideas for a better world (or at least a better Linz) and creating performances around the theme of social intelligence.
