Giacomo Puccini's immortal opera, in a high budget feature-film version directed by Academy Award nominee Robert Dornhelm, stars opera's 'Golden Couple', Rolando Villazon and Anna Netrebko as the protagonists, Rodolfo and Mimi. The chemistry between them is electric, unrivalled in the theatre today. Russian soprano Anna Netrebko is not only beautiful but has a marvelous voice and technique; Mexican tenor Rolando Villazon, has a wonderful voice and an incredible charisma. The director not only wanted to remain steadfastly faithful to Puccini's design but also document two of the leading singers of the modern age rather than embarking on a 'trendy' contemporary re-creation.

“Worldrevolution” is the story of Stefan Weber, his rock band Drahdiwaberl and their dream of worldwide revolution. The movie also chronicles contemporary history in Austria and the world over the last 50 years. Drahdiwaberl - a Viennese dialect word meaning (more or less) “spin the lady” fi rst performed at a communist-organized music festival in 1969 and rose to fame as Vienna’s number one cult band. An early bass player and singer was Falco, who rose to international fame. Drahdiwaberl was also an infl uence on extreme musicians such as Alice Cooper. The frame narrative of the fi lm is a “totally normal day” in the life of Stefan Weber and his pet chicken, bringing the energy and anarchy of punk roaring into the 21st century …

An emotional and stylistically consistent documentary musical depicting the staging of Bernstein’s West Side Story with deaf youths. The dramatic material is intertwined with life and the emotional scenes of the musical; it creates a distinctive choreography, which is a statement of the deaf people’s craving to love this world and to be open. Reciting to music, which is the way of singing of the deaf, is the strongest and most unexpected witness of the realities of their world.

Anna, an artist, is obsessed with the invasion of alien doubles bent on total destruction. Her schizophrenia is reflected in the juxtapositions of long movie camera takes with violently edited montages: private with public spaces; black & white with colour, still photographs with video, earsplitting sounds with disruptive camera angles. Anna uses her body like a map; after a devastating quarrel with her lover, she paints red stitches on herself. Watching their scenes together, we realize how seldom, if ever before, the details of sexual intimacy have been shown in film from the point of view from a woman. Export privileges rupture over unity and never settles for one-dimensional solutions
