David Lapuch

A woman ends up stranded at a gas station one night, where the manager and his friends are having a beer. It seems she didn't show up by chance, and a crazy night unfolds.

Anna plans to escape her stifling provincial life, but a ghostly encounter causes a delay. A poignant tale of departure, set in the Styrian countryside and with strong ties to the genre tropes of the uncanny and the grotesque.

An unhappily in-love car mechanic living in a small village finds himself at a crossroads; the apparent senselessness of life saddens him, and his only friend, the local butcher, is not much help.

When SHE finally wants to put an end to it after further arguments, HE asks her for one last day. A day on which he can prove to her that it still makes sense to fight for the relationship. The two spend their last (first?) day in the country.

The freely adapted short story, written by the famous author HP Lovecraft, will reveal dreadfully poetic images to the viewer and give insight into a man's struggle for survival and his fight against the loss of memory. His spectacular escape from human creatures that live in the woods,who have lost all humanity and turned into animals, leads him directly to a mysterious house whose owner will very soon confront him with his mad rage. The subtle dialogues between the two of them, will end in a carnage. At full tilt, the kinkiness of H.P Lovecraft's short story transforms into the transparent struggle of survival of a man who has lost everything in this post-apocalyptic world, a world that slowly wipes him out.

Mysterious murders on the border. Always the same crime scene. The perpetrator lurks on a hill, protected by tall grass. He hunts families. But on this day things are different. A child survives. Traumatized. Months later, an attempt is made to return the child to the crime scene as part of confrontation therapy and the story takes its course.

In his exhilarating tragicomedy, David Lapuch blends apparently disparate elements: mundane matters with meaningful ones, existentialism with comedy—and a rather unappetizing muffin with beer. Richard, a young man who leads a fairly ordinary village life, takes care of his grandfather and a sausage stand at the sports field. Within just one evening, his life becomes unhinged, and he finds out that within every ending is a beginning.

A homeless man is found dead on Graz's Schlossberg hill. Tour guide Tony Blauer becomes entangled in the mysterious crime and soon finds himself drawn into the world of the "Sandlers." Together with his British friend Duncan, he attempts to solve the case. A long-forgotten secret comes to light and leaves its mark on Graz and its history.

What would happen if we had no paper for a day? Dr. Pfauenthaler will demonstrate it to us.

Three friends together. In a party mood. A girl. Sick with lovesickness. Two policemen tired of their jobs. ...and their stories begin to overlap. A night in the hinterland.
