- DirectorFlorian FlickerStarsRoland DüringerJosef HaderJoachim BißmeierLooking around for a suitable place to hold up, Andreas stumbles into a tailor's shop. What was supposed to last only a few minutes ends up being a bizarre afternoon for three men: the tragicomic of the less-than-expert robber, the cranky tailor and a customer - a know-it-all who drives the other two crazy. The mood constantly shifts, and the tables keep turning among the threesome. A black comedy with a twist.
- DirectorHarald SicheritzStarsAlfred DorferJohn Phillip LawThomas KoziolTrauma surgeon Thomas Reiter voluntarily withdraws to a closed institution because he no longer wants to face everyday life. He solves problems in his imagination - a western fantasy. A priest is commissioned by his worried parents to bring their son back to reality. When Thomas asks him to follow him into his western world, the pastor realizes that this escape from reality is not without its fascination... A humorous look at reality and imagination, a film about the dissolution of borders. "So someone has difficulties with their life and flees into a simple world. Of course, as a screenwriter, I could also say in such a case that they flee into video games - but that was all too banal for me, it was too obvious "The Western also stands for something, it stands for simplification. There is good and there is bad, so pretty clear guidelines. For me, that was the clearest leap for someone for whom reality is too complex. In addition, it was of course a huge one Incentive to seriously try to make one, especially in a country where there is no infrastructure for a western. Nevertheless: WANTED is definitely not a western. That's very important. The western is only a small part of the film, a Neighborhood maybe, where a certain wishful thinking is served. Everything else is very real. To me it's a comedy, but I can also laugh at things that other people don't find funny at all. Let's put it this way: If INDIA was a comedy, then n WANTED is also one."
- DirectorHelmut KöppingStarsChristoph TheußlAndreas KiendlMichael OstrowskiIn Fohnsdorf, Austria's largest village--which has a high unemployment rate because of the closing of a coal mine--under the Viktor Klima administration in the early 2000s, four friends prepare for a class reunion. They aren't satisfied with what they've achieved in their lives, and they keep on struggling in very individually unconventional ways. With odd scenes that don't seem to make much sense and very cheap special effects, this is a masterpiece that gives funny insights into the everyday lives of Australian twentysomethings in the early 21st century.

- DirectorMichael GlawoggerStarsRobert MeyerBibiane ZellerNikolaus ParylaIn the middle of Vienna stands an old tenement building, and time has left its mark both on the house and its inhabitants. Here, time passes at a strange pace. Floor by floor, the visitor can discover small self-contained worlds: grousers, collectors, the forgotten, people with obsessions, concealed and exposed passions. Behind securely locked doors, each prepares his own heady brew. Then, however, death makes its entrance for the first time, sweeping through the stairwell. The owner of the house, a resident himself, dies. His nephew, an entrepreneur, inherits the building and acts immediately. He moves out, takes up lodgings, hands out notice to quit, renovates and devastates. One goal hovers before his eyes; to get rid of the tenants and make money out of the property. Gradually, the closed doors begin to open, and with each outrage committed by the new owner, the residents are drawn closer together. What comes to light thereby is an anthill full of life, and once it opens up, a flood of comical individuals streams out of it, all fighting for their own living space. A minor official, plagued by persecution mania, fears a dreadful end to the matter. Though the signs he sees of this are all wrong, nevertheless, in a furious finale, the outside world descends upon the house and his inhabitants.
