Nikolaus Habjan, puppeteer
Simon Meusburger, director

Habjan's solo life story of Friedrich Zawrel, tortured in Nazi Austria by the "expert" prison doctor, who met him again officially in the later Republic and locked him away again, is an ingenious puppet show for a story that probably no other division could cope with so coherently. In sparsely dosed film inserts and linguistically and playfully confidently gliding handling of the angular folding-jaw characters, this resulted in grandiose documentary and emotional theater in mutual embrace, which was awarded the Nestroy Prize.
