Friends out for a drive, the plan is to have fun. However, Pichler, Demian, and Ida aren’t in a hurry to force anything; they’ve known each other too long for that.

During a dinner with friends, Ari and Ronja test the limits of their open relationship.

Elena Wolff submerges into the turbulent world of the young, up-and-coming art scene of Linz. In a series of episodes, Asche tells of three couples and an outsider, of alpha males and muses, of loneliness, and the urge for self-realization. In doing so, this pop satire of the art world exercises a high-volume criticism of both patriarchy and the cultural scene—including unexpected vendettas and bizarre encounters.

“Dirty Care” is an essay film shot from first-person perspective. From martial arts training to everyday life, we follow the protagonist's point of view and a voiceover through various landscapes and tasks. In a public toilet, above the rooftops of Vienna at sunrise, in a trailer park and in a snowy landscape, we are instructed and trained to defend ourselves against a physical attack. “Dirty Care” describes the efforts that non-normative women have to make in order not to be exposed to patriarchal violence or to be capable of standing up to it. The film portrays scenes of empowerment, intimacy, resilience and companionship.

Two chill queers spend their evening deeptalking and potatoing on their couch. Food cravings lead to a spicy bet until ultimately a hot secret is spilled. Even a package of soothing cold milk can't wash away the thrill of burning a messy friendship.
