Barbara Caspar

Documentary tracing the extreme life of outlaw writer, performance artist and punk icon, Kathy Acker. Through animation, archival footage, interviews and dramatic reenactments, director Barbara Caspar explores Acker's colorful history, from her well-heeled upbringing to her role as the scribe of society's fringe.

What unites us all, regardless of the circumstances or part of the world we live in? Is simply being human the lowest common denominator? In their experimental documentary, Juri Rechinsky and Mario Hainzl explore this question by equipping women and men of different ages with body cams—in Austria, Senegal, the U.S., Japan, and on the Ukrainian front. An intimate, point-of-view journey through many lives and realities, revealing how close we actually are.

Pierre Crom reports. In 2014, the photojournalist traveled to Ukraine to document the imminent conflict on the eastern border. Juri Rechinsky shows Crom in an extensive interview, which together with his haunting photos and an unnerving score quickly develops an extremely grim pull.
