Travelling GIEFF – Vienna Ethnographic Film Days: Kurzfilmprogramm II
10:00 ONLY IF THE BABY CRIES...
India, 2024, 15 min | A film by Shadab Farooq
Set in a village in the Kashmir hills where many inhabitants are deaf, the film follows the birth of Misra Khatoon’s baby. Villagers gather and beat drums, waiting to discover whether the newborn responds to sound. The film explores communication, identity, belonging and uncertainty in a social world where silence is not absence.
10:20 WORK BETWEEN US
Austria, 2024, 29 min | A film by Elaine Goldberg
Care work is rarely visible, is mostly performed by women, and is often underpaid and undervalued. Moving through Austria’s care landscape, the film asks how family carers cope, under what conditions 24-hour carers work, and how inclusion is practised within care institutions.
10:50 City on the Back
Ecuador, 2023, 76 minutes | A film by Fadia Paola & Rodas Ziadé
María and Isabel work as informal recyclers in Quito. Following their daily labour through the city, the film makes visible informal work in urban sustainability and explores gender, activism, family responsibilities, social organisation and everyday survival.
