Lilith Kraxner and Milena Czernovsky's second film delicately approaches the everyday life of two twenty-something girls in contemporary Vienna. Winner of the Grand Prix in the International Competition at FIDMarseille, the film focuses on capturing the hypnotic atmosphere that flows between its characters. Sasha has just moved in with her boyfriend and Errol is starting a relationship with a woman he met online. A subtle sense of humour and simultaneous games with the limits of the shot and the out-of-field are at the heart of this particular study of the female identity on the frontier of adulthood. A bluish window through which to peer into the ambiguity of digital and physical spaces or the generational confrontation with an incomprehensible world in continuous transformation.
