The Style Polaroid

A week ago everyone was in complete and genuine bliss when spring seemed to have finally overpowered one of the coldest winters I have ever experienced, only to be shut down a couple of days later by another wave of unbearable cold and more snow. At this point I genuinely think that I have forgotten what warmth and sunshine feel like and the lack of vitamin D is starting to affect my generally rather positive and happy-go-lucky mood. Making the best of what is this never-ending winter I stepped up my layering game because at some point jumpers just don't do the job anymore. Layering a chique oversized blazer with a warm cotton turtleneck has become a look I am rather fond of as it gives me the feeling of being bundled up but still delivering elegant vibes, which is important in my job. Especially when having a day of meetings and interviews ahead, including one of Austria's most popular comedians. Save to say I was a bit nervous but he turned out being the most casual and down to earth guy who I chatted with about tour life, his family, broken furniture and the perks of feeling home in more than one place.

I never get tired of emphasising how grateful I am that I get to do what I love most for a living and that apparently I am doing a rather good job at it. It has made me become so incredibly confident in myself, my abilities and my place in this world that I have even started to stop caring about my flaws and weaknesses. It amazes me how much doing something you love changes you as a person and how important it is to accept yourself for who you are. I also believe that my confidence has started to reflect in my attitude and the way I approach the world and people in general. When finding yourself you suddenly find all that you need in the world to feel settled and good as well. Happiness is key.

Film is a modern form of art that has only existed for a little more than a century and has already become one of the most important ways of expressing the thoughts and visions of creative minds. Especially in the last couple years film has become a genre which is used by humans to subtly criticise human life and modern society. Because how to better confront humanity with its flaws and faults than putting it on a screen, turning it into a seemingly fictive story. 

While popular faces of the movie industry seem to become increasingly restricted in their ways of working simply because they’re exposed to continuous pressure from the Hollywood movie industry, independent actors and directors have been taking their chances to create masterpieces and moving works of art on a white canvas, telling stories about the common tragedies of life and the strength living demands of you. 

This year’s academy award nominees included a list of multiple breathtakingly beautiful movies with a capturing back story such as Luca Guadagnino’s Call Me By Your Name and Greta Gerwig’s Lady Bird. Story lines conveying a message within a scenery equalling art and representing life’s beauty while simultaneously criticising what is wrong in the world. Story lines full of strong characters and impressive character development have risen from the grounds as they fulfil a rather special purpose - subtly teaching people about the hypocrisy of modern society. 

“If you can’t get them to listen, make them see” seems to have become the motto of young actors and directors who use their platforms to get their messages, sorrows and worries across. Not only do I consider this a rather effective way of making people see their own mistakes, it is also inspiring and impressive how much effort and passion is put into these works of art that need to be appreciated more. 

After attending the Festival of Austrian Film I am even more convinced that young directors and independent movies inherit a power one is not allowed to underestimate. Film has the ability to capture one’s mind and emotions and can manipulate the mind in both good and bad ways. Giving movies a chance that didn’t evolve out of the pressured world of mainstream film is not only a challenge for the own mind and way of thinking but also challenges oneself to question our society and think about modern life’s issues even more.
