hildebrand/vordernberg,digi beta, 17min
a documentary by martina tritthart
hildebrand prett was a doctor, member of the nsdap and my grandfather. between 1938 and 1945 he lived with his family in vordernberg, a small town near the mountain erzberg in styria. in may 1945 he committed suicide together with his girlfriend edith. my grandmother erika prett tells the story about this part of her life, while scenes from private 8mm-films, taken by my grandparents, emphasize the idealized image of the past. the video has for theme the private explanation of the things that have happened in context of history. erika was only interested in the sake of her family-life and felt betrayed not only by her husband but also by society. however hildebrand remains in her remembrance a hero. erika refused to perceive the horror of the nazi-tyranny, although cautiously she makes mention of dead bodies of people, that had to walk to mauthausen and therefore passed vordernberg.

a documentary by martina tritthart
- from real to imaginary space.
- shifting from built to ephemeral architecture demonstrated on the development of viennese cinematographs in 100 years this is a kind of essay-documentary about viennese cinemas, but mainly it is a piece that deals with spaces and imagination; it was part of my thesis for my architecture-studies.
