Films in Moviemento—recent film and video productions from Zurich’s School of Art and Design as well as cinematic works dealing with the Festival’s theme. This program attempts to open up a space in which code is defined and interpreted in highly diversified fashion.
17:00 The Pillow Book - GB/NL/F 1996. 123 min. Director: Peter Greenaway.
Greenaway’s visually opulent and expressive tribute to the art of calligraphy. A young Japanese woman whose father paints her body with pictograms every year on her birthday until she becomes an adult flees from an arranged marriage.

20:00 Preliminary Short: Fast Film - A/Lux 2003. 14 min. Director: Virgil Widrich.
A chase scene through film chase scenes, staged with found footage consisting of individual images of chase scenes that have been printed out and animated on paper.
Im Anfang war der Blick - A/LUX 2002. 45 min. Director: Bady Minck.
The avant-garde filmmaker has assembled thousands of postcards into a critical reconquest of idyllic Biedermeier landscapes. In breathtaking montages, she penetrates the sultry colorfulness of the postcards without ever succumbing to their campy charms.
22:00 Kira (Dogma #21) - DK 2001. 94 min. Director: Ole Christian Madsen.
The Austrian premiere of a drama shot according to the rules of Dogma 95. Following her stay in a psychiatric facility, Kira’s behavior calls into question bourgeois conceptions of marriage, motherhood and the representation of social status.
