Festival motto "Filmwinter N°38 - Feel air from another planet!" (1)
With this motto, based on a well-known perfume advertisement, Filmwinter opens itself up to all the senses. The festival captures the essence of the ephemeral and is dedicated to the problems of preservation in artistic practice: how to capture something ephemeral like values, emotions and bodies in a digitalized society?
(1): from "I feel air from another planet" (String Quartet No. 2 in F sharp minor, op. 10) by Arnold Schönberg. Setting of the poem "Rapture" by Stefan George.
