ARCHITECTURE FILM

COMPETITION

The Architecture Window is one of the most dazzling unique features of the Regensburg Short Film Week. This competition showcases the deep interconnection between film and architecture. This year, seven international productions take us to Iran, Portugal, Austria, France, Italy, and Estonia. They explore the relationship between architecture and memory culture, address gentrification and housing shortages, urban planning, and societal pressure, while also uncovering urban myths and mysterious incidents.

Through a hypnotic single-shot sequence, we are transported to the heart of a house, where negative black and white unveil an indefinite space between memory and bewilderment. Fluctuating beneath the social veneer, the gaze undergoes a metamorphosis as the house reveals its secrets; the walls themselves seem to whisper forgotten tales and unspeakable truths.
