“Less is more.”
“Try it again, but different.”

Working with a director’s instructions is an essential part of acting for film. This two-day intensive workshop explores how actors can interpret directorial notes, turn them into playable actions and collaborate creatively with directors on set.

Led by Austria-based acting coach Frauke Steiner, the workshop brings together 12 selected film actors from across the region. Working in small groups, participants will explore how to understand their film characters, make clear acting choices and respond flexibly to directors’ instructions. The focus is on how actors can develop their own artistic expression while working within a director’s vision.

*** النمسا عبر التاريخ ***

تظهر هذه الصورة و التي تعود الى عام ۱۹٥٠ مشهدا ساحرا من احتفال "كيرشتاج" النمساوي التقليدي و هو مهرجان قروي يقام عادة للاحتفال بالكنيسة المحلية أو شفيعها أو ذكرى تكريسها. يقوم الباعة باعداد و بيع "قلوب الليبكوخن" المزخرفة وهى حلوى مصنوعة من الزنجبيل على شكل قلوب غالبا ما تزين بعبارات ورسائل تحمل مشاعر المودة.
لطالما كانت هذه الحلوى الشهية جزءا محبوبا من المهرجانات و الاحتفالات الشعبية في النمسا.
كانت أكشاك من هذا النوع جزءا أساسيا من أجواء احتفال الـ "كيرشتاج" حيث تتفقد العائلات أنواع الحلوى المصنوعة يدويا و كان الأطفال يستمتعون بمشاهد الزخارف الملونة بينما يتبادل الأصدقاء هدايا صغيرة تعبيرا عن المودة. تظهر صور من هذا النوع كيف تضافرت الحرف اليدوية و أجواء الاحتفال لتشكل الطابع الدافىء و الأصيل للحياة في القرى النمساوية .
