55/95

A piece of found footage from Austrias past, adapted with the future in mind.

Trailer for the film programme: AUSTRIAN AVANT-GARDE CINEMA 1955 – 1993

May 15. 1955 – „Österreich ist frei (Austria is free)“, says the Austrian minister for foreign affairs and drops the paper with this sentence written on it.

40 years later I find a piece of film with this event registred on it.

January 1, 1995 – Austria becomes a member of the European Community. The state treaty a neutrality are up for discussion again. I adapt the found footage as a national example for the international handling of political responsibility.
