In 2019 the ACFs Cine Club will try to investigate the relationship of
Austrian cinema and genre. In our January/February program we will
decent into the darker spheres of horror, obsession and suspense. A
selection of films spanning the silent era to the present day will showcase varied approaches to this genre. Throughout the year and future programs
we will embark on other genres and shall try to establish an
understanding of the common tropes and signs found throughout cinema
history which make it a truly universal and international language
understood by all humans who after all share similar fears and
desires.
Austria, 1924, 90min, English, German & French with English subtitles, directed by Robert Wiene
