“Alle Aussteigen” ( EN: “It’s My Bus”) – Short Film Teaser
“Alle Aussteigen” (English title: “It’s My Bus!”) is a social drama about a standoff between two strangers in a public bus – a young Muslim woman (Aysun) and an older Austrian lady (Elfriede). The situation escalates and the bus has to come to a halt. How far are both women willing to go to defend their beliefs? And what role will the other passengers play? A claustrophobic drama about the delicate balance of sharing public space with others.
