Description

Ulrike Ottinger (AT/LU/DE, 2026, 119′)
Language: German Subtitles: English Ulrike Ottinger returns to the big screen and combines vampire myth, historical fantasy, and satire into a distinctive work. In collaboration with Elfriede Jelinek, she creates a film that playfully engages with motifs from pop culture, theater, and literature, deliberately crossing traditional genre boundaries. The story centers on the Blood Countess (Isabelle Huppert) and her maid (Birgit Minichmayr), who initiate a new 'Dance of the Vampires' in Vienna. As they hunt for the red life essence, the buried history of their ancestors, and a book that threatens to destroy their vampire realm, a grotesque game of power, memory, and immortality unfolds.
