(Free Seating; Capacity: 193) Evamaria SCHALLER (Cologne), Desmodontinae, 2015. Color, 10:39 Evamaria SCHALLER (德國科隆), 吸血蝠亞科, 2015. 彩色, 10:39 "Desmodontinae" (lat; vampire bats) is an experimental film based on performance art and documentary film. The artist experiments on the subject of vampirism and "Desmodontinae" is based on the fictive story of the first lesbian vampire in literary history, Carmilla of Karnstein, which caused a scandal and mischief in Styria, Austria – the country of origin of Evamaria Schaller. Mythical scenes of blood sucking are the visual starting material for this piece, where surreal alternates with documentary, moments intersects with movements.
