  • Trivia
    All his movies are characterized by a disturbing documentary style to make them more authentic.
  • Quotes
    The Prom (1982) was the reason, why I was kicked out of the Wiener Filmakademie [filmschool in Vienna]. The teachers didn't like the structure and editing and expected that the film would hurt the reputation of the academy.
