Introduction

The Viennale is Austria’s most important international film event, as well as one of the oldest and best known festivals in the German speaking world. It is a festival branded internationally with a distinctive urban flair. A high percentage of the more than 95,000 visitors to the festival from Austria and abroad is made up of a distinctively young audience aged 18- 30 years.

In its main program, the Viennale shows a carefully picked selection of new films from all over the globe as well as from Austria, some of them international premieres. The choice of about 300 films offers a cross-section of bold film-making which stands apart from the aesthetics of mainstream conventionality and is politically relevant. Aside from its focus on the newest feature films of every genre and structural form imaginable, the festival gives particular attention to documentary films, international short films, as well as experimental works and crossover films.

It is a festival of information, surprises, discoveries and above all, of films.
