PRESSURE
Julian Pixel Schmiederer (AT), Gregor Franz (AT), Johannes Rass (AT), Lara Rabitsch (AT)
The movie is a mirror of modern society where uniqueness is demonized, where striving for freedom is something uncommon and where chasing your dreams is not cool anymore. In a society like this it´s hard for people to identify themselves, because we are taught not to be different. We are always trying to push our psychological limits to the edge, just to do what others think is good for us. The film is dealing with these issues and looks at them from an artistic perspective.

Solar Walk
Réka Bucsi (HU)
Solar Walk shows the journey of individuals and their creations on through time and space. Any meaning behind the actions only exists from the viewpoint of the individual but not from the perspective of an entire solar system. Réka Bucsi conveys in her whimsical animation the melancholy acceptance of chaos as something beautiful and cosmic.
