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.

UngenauBot

Ilmar Hurkxkens (NL), Fabian Bircher (CH)

UngenauBot combines highly developed robot technology with an everyday rubber glove performing banal activities. By deliberately exploiting empirical errors in robotic systems and artificial intelligence, this work demonstrates the limits of technology when things don’t go according to plan.
