nordrand/northern skirts

Directed by Barbara Albert (1999), In German; English subtitles. 103 min.

Vienna 1995. Jasmin, Tamara, Roman, Senad and Valentin, five young people of various ethnic backgrounds, meet in Vienna and share their lives, dreams and wishes for a short time. They all try to find their happiness in their own way. Either alone, in pairs of two, and occasionally in harmony, sometimes in conflict with themselves and sometimes in conflict with each other. Living on the north side of the city between temporary jobs, unwanted pregnancies, suppressed memories of the war in Yugoslawia, and the task of protecting Austria's border with force, these five young people try to give each other moral support and warmth. Though often clumsy in espressing themselves and their emotions, they are filled with the need to love and be loved until their lives take them in different directions.
