We were delighted to welcome director Ulrich Seidl to the screening
of Import/Export after which he took part in a Q&A. Both
confrontational and compassionate, Seidl’s tale of migration and
social borders weaves its way through contemporary Europe as it
interrogates the political, cultural and economic forces which
shape life here. Moving in diametrically opposed directions, the
film traces two of its citizens’ peripatetic journeys toward a
better life: nurse Olga leaves the poverty of the Ukraine for a new
start in Austria, while unemployed Austrian Paul heads to the
Ukraine in search of work and meaning.
