Filmcorrespondence

From the spring of 2018 to the spring of 2019, Austrian filmmakers Manfred Schwaba and Antoinette Zwirchmayr —who up to this point had maintained a faithful, intense “letter friendship” —switched to an unusual, artistic and intense method of communication. Their letters adopted the form of short analogue films, shot on silent 16mm, edited mostly “in camera”, to be (hand-)developed by the receiver rather than by the sender.
