While experiencing writer’s block in developing this film and waiting for inspiration to strike, it occurred to the filmmaker that all of the friends she intended to shoot, her so-called muses, had ADHD. Drawing a connection between her muses—charismatic centers of attention—and the generalized assault on our collective attention, Van-Huy uses ADHD as a fake theme through which to engage her muse-friends in interviews and in improvised activities, ultimately creating what she calls an “Action Documentary.”

mumok cinema, designed by artist Heimo Zobernig together with architect Michael Wallraff, is presenting manifold links between fine art and film, showing the great significance of the moving image for classical modernist art, for art in the 1960s and 1970s, and especially for contemporary developments in art.
In a regular Wednesday evening film program, we offer a forum for thematic series of films and conversations about current issues in art. These programs also facilitate discussion on new works and trends.
With its numerous partners mumok cinema is an experimental venue of transfer for artistic approaches and discourses, and also for direct exchange with the audience. mumok cinema also offers opportunities to complement our current exhibitions with related film screenings and to explore and utilize our comprehensive collection of contemporary media art.
