VENI VIDI VICI

In the organizer's words:

Feature film - A 2024 - 86' - OmeU

Director: Daniel Hoesl, Julia Niemann

"I can do anything, I can get away with anything," businessman Amon Maynardt confesses to a journalist, both baffled and almost disappointed. The super-rich Austrian has a particular hobby: he hunts people down in broad daylight, without making any great effort to conceal his actions. And even the police look the other way. He is "too big too fail", too rich to have to abide by the law. Daniel Hösl's dark social satire distorts neoliberal reality beyond recognition in sunny but ice-coldly framed images.

All about the power of images in film, pop culture, art and society. At FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE from October 17-24, 2024 and always online.
