DANUBE SO BLUE – Reframing An Evergreen
It is one of the most famous pieces of music in the world and has also made a lasting mark on film history (e.g., in Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey): the waltz The Blue Danube by Johann Strauss II, whose 200th birthday will be celebrated in 2025.
The Johann Strauss 2025 Festival and VIENNA SHORTS are looking for modern and original cinematic visions to reframe the popular evergreen beyond advertising clichés. The music piece can be included in any way; unconventional approaches to music, text, and imagery are welcome.
