Prater


Thursday, October 30
Film Screening

6 PM Prater
BY ULRIKE OTTINGER. DOCUMENTARY 2007 - 104 MIN
People, monsters, sensations: The beguiling images in Ulrike Ottinger's Prater transform the mythical Viennese amusement park into a cinematic experience. A captivating succession of intention and coincidence, a funfair ride through time and space. An enigmatic film that makes us think and laugh.


8 PM All the Invisible Things (Heile Welt)
BY JACOB M. ERWA. FICTION 2007 - 90 MIN
Adolescents in the amphibious situation between childhood and adulthood try to cope with their emotions and their environment. Precisely when limits, a foothold, and hope are what they most urgently need, they signalize the opposite. Between loss, misplaced love, parental problems, and their own needs, the parent generation tries to understand or at least to save something.


Venue: Austrian Cultural Forum New York, 11 East 52nd Street, NYC 10022
Free admission, no reservations necessary.
