Once again it is proven that church and cinema go well together: The Catholic Church is again presenting ten moving short films.
FREE TOWN. This year’s selection of films includes all the feelings and topics that people are currently dealing with and that determine thoughts and feelings. Anxiety, fear and ignorance are present, and yet the selected films give cause for smiles, wonder and joy. The program has a total running time of about 95 minutes. From short films to animated films, everything is included. The short films will be screened in the Freistadt cinema on Wednesday, January 25, at 8 p.m.

Among the ten “Moments” shown is a short film from Austria, “Ausstieg Rechts”. When a black person is racistly attacked for no reason on a packed bus, there is only one passenger who doesn’t ignore the situation like everyone else. “Look away or intervene?” This is the central question in the 3:13 minute film by Rupert Höller and Bernhard Wenger.
