Armageddon poster

Anton and Franz live together since the beginnings of 20th century. They talk about their difficulties of being vampires, since their first bite in 1938. Their inconsistent arguments recall those of normal human beings. And history repeat itself. As if that were not enough, they also doesn`t really like each other much.

Go West poster

Barbara, a highly engaged senior, takes in Sabur and Zakaria. In return, the two men from Afghanistan must keep the house and garden in order and, without their consent, endure private lessons on the “Western lifestyle.” It’s a fine line between support and encroachment.

Laurent sells houses, Milena has to work in a beauty salon and Slavor is somewhere in-between on the Czeck-Austrian border. This could be a documentation of a love story in the times of crying men and bored women.

The Life of Sean DeLear poster
NR

The Life of Sean DeLear is a vibrantly multi-faceted, buoyantly propulsive documentary portrait of this irresistibly charismatic one-off — sketched in celebratory but commendably clear-eyed style by writer-director Markus Zizenbacher. There can be very few people better qualified to do justice to this particular tale. Zizenbacher befriended DeLear — born Anthony Robertson in Simi Valley, an obscure California backwater — after the latter relocated to Vienna in the early 2010s.
