"Some things can be seen more clearly at night: ABENDLAND, Nikolaus Geyrhalter's new feature film, undertakes a long, associative journey, surveying Europe by night in all its many facets. Night work, obliviousness , noise and silence, linguistic confusion and translation problems, one's first steps in life, illness, death and desperate attempts to cross borders: all this is revealed by Geyrhalter's camerawork and in Wolfgang Widerhofer's careful editing, which produce an essay film with powerful images about a continent and the concept of "Abendland" (the western World), “which seems at times to give the impression that it is on the verge of breathing its last breath." (NGF) The website shows the film’s many facets. The start page enables visitors to get a flavour of the film by watching the trailer and draws them immediately into the subject. And since, as is well known, pictures are worth a thousand words, visual impressions form the backbone of the website. The full-screen background images in particular give a taste of the film's atmosphere. Dark colours used in the graphics accentuate the way the site's design reflects the film's subject. The gallery includes behind-the-scenes photos. Press articles and general information are available in the download section, as is an interesting interview with Nikolaus Geyrhalter. "Abendland" is on Facebook and can be shared with friends on the network via the website.
