Live streaming platform Kino VOD Club brings focus to Graz

Private investigator Simon Brenner races across the city on his scooter: past the stadium in Liebenau with the Storm fans, in zigzags through Schönaugasse, past the Kleine Zeitung and the house wall right in front of it, where the competition took place. At that time, Arnold Schwarzenegger was announced on the wall. Then to Murinsel with a spectacular visit to the toilet, and finally a chase through Schloßberg and a conciliatory visit to the central cemetery of Graz.

Or would you prefer another tour of Graz? We pass through Gries and Lind in a stretch limousine – and then back and forth between the Andräviertel and the Elisabethinen Hospital in a wheelchair with the legend of the unconscious representation.

Two films and many legendary scenes in which Graz was immortalized, part of which has now largely disappeared. “Eternal Life” (2015) and “The Accidental Kidnapping of Mrs. Elfriede Ott” (2010) are classic works from Graz. In the new Graz package of the Austrian streaming service “Kino VOD Club” It is included.

Nine films shot in Graz have been compiled – and with them locations in Graz that are “worth seeing alongside the films”, as the team at Kino VOD Club believes. Furthermore: “With Rechbauer, Schubert and KIZ Royal, Graz also offers great places to watch films.” Individual cinema tours of the city can be found online in the descriptions of the respective films. You can also stream the films shown for one euro cheaper until September 20.

What does the package include besides the two classics? Jakob Erwa's first feature film “Heile Welt”, which was chosen as the best feature film at the Diagonale in 2007, the Glawogger comedy “Nacktschnecken” (2004 – immortalized here: Frühbar Beate and Vipers in the Palais Thinnfeld), “1 Date in Autumn” (2021; Sébastian Brauneis's version of the Graz Godard film), “The New Normal” (2021), the lockdown comedy by Martin Kruisenbrunner, the documentary Jacomini “I am Jakotop” by Markus Morth (2022) and “The Things of Which” “Dreams Are”, the documentary about the settlement of terraced houses by Michael Reber and Lotte Schreiber (2019). The comedy “Bosnian Pot” by Pavo Marinković (2023) has only recently been released in cinemas; It will be available from Kino VOD Club starting in the fall.
