LAND OF MOUNTAINS
Olga Kosanovic reveals the unjust absurdity of Austrian residency law. Single father Vladimir wants to work so he can stay in the country with his daughter. But he is not allowed to do so if he does not have residency rights. From this paradox, the film filters a humanistic indictment of the cynical domestic politics in a country of insurmountable (paper) mountains. Austria/Germany 2023; Director: Olga Kosanovic; (DCP; 28 min; German-Serbian ORIGINAL VERSION WITH GERMAN SUBTITLES). In cooperation with the Eastern European Centre/Network of Areas at the University of Innsbruck.

Switzerland 2024, Director: Keerthigan Sivakumar; (DCP; 15 min; original version with English subtitles).
