Billy Roisz
Austria 2014 / 13’
experimental

A recording of a performance and an uncompromising experiment in form. An all-encompassing darkness interrupts elements of intense color that are inextricably linked to the sound, which plays a crucial role in the film. The sense of an enclosed space and of prevailing gloom create an impression similar to the experience of being at a cinema.

Billy Roisz


One of the best-known figures from Austria’s experimental scene. We were able to hear the results of her musical work in the production Parasite, which was screened during the 13th T-Mobile New Horizons Festival. In her work, Roisz tries to apply her experimental music to visual images. She is a programmer at the Reheat Festival. In 2009, she received a BMUKK award for special achievement in the field of innovative art.
