This program brings together films by Dabernig created in collaboration with other artists: In *Gehfilmen 6*, he marched on a mysterious mission for Thomas Baumann and Martin Kaltner—marking his entry into cinema. In *Timau*, a trio is sent up a mountain and through a dark cave; the strange excursion turns out to be a routine maintenance job in a classic, absurd Dabernig twist. In *automatic*, three drivers engage in obsessive activity set to hot electro beats, yet remain stuck in place. *Aquarena* is an ironic film about relationships (and architecture) featuring partner Isabella Hollauf: swimming separately to the accompaniment of a recitation of Leipzig’s municipal regulations.
