The series FOCUS ON: ín the Breitenseer Lichtspiele provides insight into the work of the film artist Sasha Pirker, Studio for Video and Videoinstallation, who with her pointed short films has for many years occupied a fixed position at renowned international film festivals and in exhibition contexts.

Two programs will present a selection of her works - from 60 Elephants. Episodes of a Theory (AT 2018), a portrait of the French architect and humanist Yona Friedman, to LIVEPAN, an experiment in humor as resistance, to her latest film gewesen sein wird (AT 2022), a search for clues in the apartment of the artist Heinz Frank, who died in 2020.
