Bobby drives back and forth between Vienna and Salzburg, picking up strangers along the way and sharing conversations that drift from the everyday to the deeply personal. Neither a documentary, nor entirely fiction, ‘London’ is a quietly political portrait of today’s Europe via its in-between spaces and those passing through them. Even in these strange times, anonymity and kindness can still go hand in hand.
Sebastian Brameshuber
Born in 1981 in Gmunden (Austria), he studied stage and film design at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna and film at Le Fresnoy, France. His filmography includes short films like ‘Preserving Cultural Traditions in a Period of Instability’ (2004), ‘Of Stains, Scrap & Tires’ (2014) and ‘In, Over & Out’ (2016), as well as feature-length documentaries such as ‘Muezzin’ (2010), ‘And There We Are, in the Middle’ (2014) and ‘Movements of a Nearby Mountain’, which won the Grand Prix at Cinéma du Réel – an award he has won again this year with ‘London’ (2026), his latest work. His works have been showcased and awarded at festivals such as Berlinale, Viennale, Art of the Real, FIDMarseille, IDFA, Bafici, Sarajevo FF, and BFI London. Retrospectives of his work were held at the Austrian Film Archive in Vienna and Anthology Film Archives.
