Matter Out of Place
Sound Mixer
A film about our garbage that is found in the most remote areas and about the people who try to dispose of it. Not only in the sea and on coasts, also in the Arctic, the jungle, high up on the mountains and deep inside the desert, garbage is found almost everywhere in various forms and dimensions, sometimes as whole car wrecks, old TV sets or simply construction rubble, but mostly in the form of disintegrated plastic particles a few millimetres in size. Humanity has handed out its visiting cards thoroughly.
Breaking the Ice
Sound Mixer
Mira lives for the sport of ice hockey and leads her team as captain with a strong determination. It's a challenge to reconcile this with her role in the family vineyard: with her mother and her adventurous but increasingly demented grandfather, she runs the farm - with all its responsibilities. The new player Theresa completely unsettles her with her nonchalance and openness. And when Mira's missing brother Paul also turns up and all three get lost in late-night Vienna, Mira discovers the freedom it means to break rules, to reinvent herself - and that you can only love if you let go.

Running on Empty
Sound Mixer

Bora – Stories about a Wind
Sound Mix Technician
The Bora is one of the strongest winds in the world, a force of nature. She forms landscapes and sets elements in motion. It determines everyday life and permeates the minds of the people who live in its sphere of influence.
Земля
Sound Mixer
Ежегодно человечество перемещает несколько миллиардов тонн земли – с помощью лопат, экскаваторов и динамита. В шахтах, забоях и на крупных строительных площадках режиссер Николаус Гейрхальтер наблюдает за людьми в их неустанном стремлении овладеть планетой.
Chaos
Sound Mixer
'Chaos' narrates the story of three women in three different cities. They have given up on life. One lives in Damascus. She has stopped speaking to others entirely, isolating herself in her flat. The other has left Damascus as a result of the war and went to Sweden, where she imprisons herself in her paintings, hoping through them to rid herself of the torments of the past. The third ended up in Vienna and faces an unknown future, like the ghost of a woman who fled Austria after the Second World War. It is a discussion between a woman stuck in Damascus, a second stuck in exile, and a third who has recently left. It is a conversation between the interior and exterior – an impossible conversation.
The Border Fence
Sound Mixer
Brenner Pass, Alpine border, spring 2016: the Austrian government announces the construction of a border fence, expecting a shift of the refugee routes to Italy after the Balkan route is closed. The residents fear the fence just as much as the supposedly threatening influx of foreigners to their homeland. Two years later, the fence is still rolled up in a container, as the inrush of refugees never occurred.

Братья ночи
Sound Re-Recording Mixer
На фоне панорамы Вены и прекрасного Дуная предстает жизнь аутсайдеров приличного общества – молодых болгарских цыган. Их спортивные кожаные куртки выглядят как доспехи. Подражая Марлону Брандо, они позируют, играют, соблазняют клиентов. Эти парни переехали в Вену в поисках приключений, свободы и легких денег, но нищета толкнула их на торговлю своими телами. Застрявшие в этом темном мире, они проводят ночи, обслуживая клиентов, зачастую одиноких мужчин, живущих в социальном жилье. Они называют это «бизнесом», как бы разграничивая работу и удовольствие. Интересная внешность – их проклятие, и с приближением сумерек начинается их вторая жизнь – ведь надо кормить свои семьи на родине. Однако в чувстве единения они находят утешение. Вместе они чувствуют себя молодыми, азартными и свободными, может быть, первый раз в жизни.
I am me
Sound Mixer
Twins look alike. Sometimes they even think alike. But they're two rather than one. I Am Me is in part about the fact that an individual is more than the sum of his or her characteristics. The fact that a person is neither what other people say about them nor their own description of themselves. And photographs and moving images are nothing more than representations.
Сталинград
Akkordeonspieler
Зима 1942 года. Шестая армия вермахта сражается в разрушенном до основания Сталинграде. Взвод элитных немецких солдат, в первой же битве потерявший больше половины личного состава, ведет отчаянную борьбу за выживание. Свист пуль и рев «катюш», голод и холод доводят их до грани безумия. Уже почти ничего не удерживает солдат на тонкой линии между жизнью и смертью. После всего, что они видели, после утраты всех идеалов призыв фюрера «стоять до конца» приобретает для них совсем другое, гораздо более страшное значение…
