The two directors of the Austrian Film Festival in Graz had already finished preparing the pro- gram beforer the corona crisis forced them to<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>move the festival to the online quarantine.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Parts of the festival program originally planned for Graz will be shown on the ORF stream- ing platform <i>flimmit.at <\/i>and on the streaming platform of the Austrian arthouse cinemas <i>vodclub.online.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p>One of the DIAGONALE competition films that can be seen on <i>flimmit.com <\/i>is Jessica Haus- ner\u2019s sci-fi film \u201cLittle Joe\u201d, which premiered at the International Film Festival in Cannes. At the center of the film is the biologist Alice (Emily Beecham), who has developed a genetically modified plant &#8211; Little Joe &#8211; whose fragrance is ment to make people happy. But the happiness project slips and tips into a horror story. The plant is nowhere near as harmless as thought and causes uncanny changes in the behaviour of the people.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The special program section \u201cZur Person\u201d of this year \u0301s DIAGONALE is also dedicated to Jessica Hausner. The DIAGONALE <i>flimmit <\/i>subscription includes Hausner films such as Amour Fou, Hotel, Lovely Rita or Lourdes, which are always worth for beeing rediscovered. Hausner is a master of mischievous ambiguity. The focus of her films is in many cases on women, who<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>often deal with the uncontrollability of life in a wayward way. The DIAGONALE short film program on <i>flimmit <\/i>is focussed on the topic of youth and identity. Under the program title \u201cMe and you and everyone we know\u201d, the two DIAGONALE directors Sebastian H\u00f6glinger and Peter Schernhuber have put together a cinematic kaleidoscope of 6 coming-of-age films.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The experimental film portrait of \u201cRalfs Farben\u201d by Lukas Marxt about the artist Michael Petri, who lives in Lanzarote for years, appears like an anticipation of our corona quarantine, which has made us fall out of space and time. Landscape and film, inner and outer world and the thinking of a man who turns in circles and spirals merge into an experimental film amalgam. A \u201csemi-fantasy\u201d fitting to the reality depriva- tion of this strange time.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The black comedy \u201cGl\u00fcck gehabt\u201d, a triangular relationship story by Peter Payer is a humorous contrast. The teacher and private tutor Artur leads a comfortable, happy marriage with Rita, who is just about to become a school director when young Alice bursts into Artur\u2019s life. The story turns into a black-humorous thriller, in which the Biedermeier everyday Bobo life gets out of balance.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a time of prescribed social distancing, the films of the \u201cunfinished\u201d DIAGONALE 2020 appear in a very special light. They raise desire for more movies of quality. And also on going back to the <i>Annenhof<\/i>, the <i>Schubert <\/i>or <i>Rechbauer cinemas <\/i>in Graz at the 2021 Festival, strolling through the alleys of the old town of Graz and meeting real people. And not just leading a life like in a movie.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>DIAGONALE Festival des \u00f6sterreichischen Films<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/b><b style=\"font-size: inherit;\">DIAGONALE 2020 Online filmfestival<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.diagonale.at\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.diagonale.at<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flimmit.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.flimmit.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>DIAGONALE retrospective<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\">Sebastian H\u00f6glinger and Peter Schernhubers recommendations from former\u00a0<\/span>DIAGONALE festivals on VOD-Club <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vodclub.online\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.vodclub.online<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Graz film festival DIAGONALE in online quarantine. \u201eThe unfinished\u201d, that\u2019s how Sebastian H\u00f6glinger and Peter Schernhuber call this year\u2019s edition of DIAGONALE film festival.
