Special Mention at interfilm Berlin
Widow&Orphan has received a "Special Mention" in the German Competition at the interfilm Festival - this is what the jury says:
"In a poetic and at the same time naturalistic way, Niklas Pollmann tells the story of two rejected people who speak into the void of their phones. Longing for connection, acceptance and understanding for their own contradictory self. And at the end there is this note. A small sign that maybe we are not so alone after all?"

First award for Comrade Tito
Comrade Tito, I inherit by Olga Kosanović won the 3sat Emerging Talent Award at Oberhausen. What a blast!! Here's what the Jury had to say:
"A summer in the countryside, the interplay of daily chores in the house and garden and casual reflections about how best to stage the idyll. In front of and behind the camera, the filmmaker looks for answers to how we should deal with our political and material heritage. But neither the conversations with her family nor memories re-discovered on the Internet, nightly tales or the unanswered letters to her über-father help. A local inspection and an analysis of the present day."

Also, we had the honor to be part of two panels at FEKK Ljubljana Short Film Festival & Short Waves and look forward to many more to come.

May & June Highlights
Slow but steady wins the race. While the cultural sector in general and film festivals in particular have had to slow down their pace, they did not halt to a standstill. And neither did we for that matter. Apart from the 8 short films we presented as part of the Online Edition of Vienna Shorts (5 in the official Austrian Competition and 3 in curated programs), in May we also celebrated the Polish premiere of “The Verdict in the Case of K.” at the Krakow Film Festival.
We’ve also enjoyed our very own Midsommar celebration (the peaceful kind, not the Ari Astrid kind), as “The Verdict in the Case of K.” had its Spanish premiere at Festival Internacional de Cine de Huesca while “How to Disappear” had Asian premiere at Pyeongchang International Peace Film Festival in South Korea.
2. June 2020
The Verdict is in!
Although during the past few months time seemed to have been suspended, director Özgür Anil has certainly not been slowing down. In May his short film “The Verdict in the Case of K.” celebrated its Polish premiere at the Krakow Film Festival, while also being featured in a curated programme at Vienna Shorts. June brought its own festivities, as the film had its Spanish premiere at Festival Internacional de Cine de Huesca. Congratulations to the director and the whole team, a big cin-cin for more selections to come!

"If life gives you a lemon, make lemonade out of it!"
...was literally the motto of the year, after hard work, struggling and months of intense prep-work. But starting in December 2018, Marija Milovanovic and Julia Fabrick are fully dedicating themselves to their new tasks as managing directors of the newly founded LEMONADE FILMS association. As cultural managers and curators, Marija and Julia have worked for the past ten years with film festivals and film distributors in Vienna, Linz, Berlin and Nijmegen (including Berlinale, Crossing Europe, Diagonals, Filmdelights, / Slash Film Festival, Some Shorts) and are very well connected in this business worldwide.
