FromAnna Mühlberger, Moses Gsellmann

Year2024

Duration84min.

Anna and Moses embarked on the adventure of a lifetime in 2021. In search of captivating personalities and their stories of contentment, they travelled east in their minibus ‘Olaf’ through a total of 14 countries, all the way to Armenia.

Everyday challenges such as the constant search for a place to sleep, demanding weather conditions and living in a confined space did not deter them from returning home with a key realisation: You only set limits in your own mind.

‘Rückenwind’ is an empathetic film that offers viewers an insight into Anna and Moses' 10-month journey through visually observant scenes and a calm narrative style in the form of personal diary entries. While they themselves are only rarely seen in front of the camera, they bring four travelling companions in front of the lens, who provide intimate insights into their own lives and their satisfaction.

With their work, Anna Mühlberger and Moses Gsellmann endeavour to refute prejudices against other countries and their cultures, to make viewers think and, above all, to create awareness for greater contentment.
