Innovative Film Austria 10/11

„Das ist es, was immer mit den
Menschen los und mit den
Tieren nicht los ist.“ Jan Groos
A fictional documentation circles the story
of a missing woman in her late 20’s,
approaching her story through research
materials she left behind, shots of where
she lived, as well as interviews with people
from her surroundings. Over the course of
the film it becomes clear that the missing
woman had worked in theory and practice
on developing a dynamic structure of identity.
Accordingly, interviews with acquaintances
render an increasingly contradictory
image of her, one which the film never
resolves.
