3friends2foes

Three friends Uly, Johanna and Emil are slaving away for a pittance in a company that sells protective masks and chemicals. One day, a masked worker makes fool of the company’s heir and the neo-boss in front of the assembled crew. Of course, the culprit must now be investigated and arrested at all costs …


« One of the most beautiful Viennese films of recent years is hidden behind this underhanded comedy, which could not be more topical in terms of nowadays politics. … This film, which was shot without funding for just under 2,500 euros, allows itself the most beautiful moments when it pauses for a moment and leads us to roadside eateries and suburban pubs on a long summer night – and ap- parently effortlessly spreads a pleasant feeling of happiness as if we were right there with the three friends. The urgently needed antithesis to the prescribed social distancing of these days. » Florian Widegger
