Oberhausen on Tour 2017: Award Winners Programme

The International Short Film Festival Oberhausen is one of the most important short film institutions anywhere in the world. From 28 to 30 April, the best films from the Oberhausen Sort Film competition will be screened at the Bioscope. Two programmes will be screened: the 2016 Award Winners Programme and the Artist Film Programme.


Award Winners Programme: This line-up spotlights all the main winners of the 2016 festival.


This line-up spotlights all the main winners of the 2016 festival. First, Sarah Drath shows us Turkey against the backdrop of its history, in a film full of ambiguous political commentary. In Andreas Hofstetter’s music video “All Day”, we can dream our way into the visual cosmos of the internet in the space of just four minutes. “489 Years” then leads the way in enthralling computer-animated image sequences down the dangerous path through a mined paradise in Korea. Lav Diaz’s formally one-of-a-kind sci-fi film “The day before the end”, in which the Philippines prepare for a severe storm, has a compelling political urgency. Vika Kirchenbauer’s sensual concept video “SHE WHOSE BLOOD IS CLOTTING IN MY UNDERWEAR” looks at the violence of lust in scenes both loud and intimate, brutal and tender. And finally, in Louise Carrin’s “Venusia”, awarded the Grand Prize of the City of Oberhausen, we observe and listen to private and intimate moments between the owner of a luxury brothel and an untalented prostitute. This unusual double portrait unfolds a dynamic landscape of the human condition.
