Content:
"The
Wild Run" is an imaginative story that puts customs, researched, pagan
and satanic rituals into context. The basis for the short film was
provided by a well-founded study conducted by Dominik Wiesauer at the
University of Vienna. To give the story more tension, almost a horror
dynamic, great emphasis is placed on witty dialogue and action-packed
moments. There is also no lack of a mystical touch, which definitely
allows for supernatural influences. A youthful click, consisting of
Felix, Michelle and Noel, want to perform a ritual for 5 December,
integrated during a big Krampus run they organise. They thus try to
strengthen their satanic rite with evil energy through the run. Dark,
demonic beings emerge from a portal and leave a bloody trail of
destruction in their wake. The quirky, offbeat priest and the nun
"Alina" get on the trail of the youth gang. They try to avert the
foreseeable evil conjured up by the young adults.

in Stall im Mölltal. "The material is presented in a different way than
most will expect," Andreas Ortner, who not only took on the leading role

consciousness and the audience is left with room for imagination &
creativity," Ortner sums up.

To really get to the bottom of "FORMATION", you have to look back to 2012. That's where Helmut Michael Kemmer's first critical thoughts emerged, which he had with one of his friends in a chat. A few months later - at the beginning of 2013 - he published the first texts that were the basis for the later film in his socially critical essay "Ich bin Rebell. In the winter of 2017, Josef M. Fasching, a native of Mörtschach and a good friend of Helmut Michael, spoke on the phone. Both had already realised several short films together. That was the birth of FORMATION. The first thing they did was to visit the Forum for Austrian Filmmakers. There they met the Viennese director Vesely Marek and the professional actor Manuel Dragan. After discussing the script and possibilities together, they joined the project. Production work began and more and more team members were found. The Filmcommission Carinthia helped with this. Grandurfilm Studio from Klagenfurt agreed to provide all the film equipment. Almost three months of preparation were needed for only two days of shooting. For the search of the rest of the team, the actors and extras, they were supported by the local newspapers. When the municipalities of Stall and Rangersdorf promised their support, nothing more stood in the way of the shoot. The film crew was ready for 26 February 2018. "It was a march of protest! A march for humanity. Against superficiality, politically neutral and against the passage of time. Currently, we have chosen technology instead of humanity, closeness, affection and togetherness. We have opted for control instead of responsibility and trust. We should listen to these thoughts right now and return to a path where togetherness, respect and honesty take a much higher priority than other values." This is what FORMATION stands for, according to the author.
FORMATION has so far achieved 18 awards, numerous finalist places and Official Selections.
