DOCUMENTARYGlory to the Queen revolves around the life and the legacy of four female chess stars from Cold War era and Soviet icons of emancipation.
Living in one city, their past and the present mixes into permanent performance.
DOCUMENTARYTwo family histories, one century and two metropolises merge in one person: Weina Zhao, whose parents called her „Vienna“ - Wéiyenà - because they emigrated to Austria. Her journey into the history of China leads to the Cultural Revolution, modern China and tackles the great issues of the 21st century: migration, identity and the search for one‘s past.
DOCUMENTARYSearching for the roots of polarization, a liberal American-Austrian filmmaker grows close to some Trump voters in Ohio, a swing-state that shows striking parallels to Europe and its swing to the right. The filmmaker’s golden rule is: “don’t argue, listen”, but as the film progresses and society’s division grows, we are all put to the test.
