Cinema in the Tower: The Souffleur (AT/AR 2025)
TOURDATA
Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky-Platz 1, 5550 Radstadt
THE SOUFFLEUR (AT/AR 2025) AT/AR 2025, 78 min., Original version with subtitles, Directed by: Gastón Solnicki, starring: Willem Dafoe, Lilly Lindner, Stéphanie Argerich, Gastón Solnicki, Imona Mirrakhimova, Claus Philipp, Camille Clair, and others.
After thirty years as the manager of a legendary Viennese hotel, Lucius learns that the building has been sold to an Argentine developer who plans to tear it down and reinvent it. With the help of his daughter and a handful of loyal staff, he clings to the life he has built in Vienna. What follows is a struggle filled with back alleys, spies, and the paranoid fight to preserve a fading world – and the only home he has ever known.
"Willem Dafoe says, 'The Intercontinental is like a huge ship,' as he tries to prevent the downfall of the venerable Viennese hotel. The decay is evident: in the engine room, in the cabins, even the legendary soufflés no longer taste the same. 'But those who are open to experiences,' Dafoe desperately asserts, 'can discover many beautiful things here. This also applies to this wondrous essay film, in which the old charm of the soon-to-be-nonexistent landmark becomes something uniquely beautiful.'" (Michael Pekler, Viennale)
Admission: € 12,- / Reduced: € 10,-
