Presentation of Catalog and Festival Film documentation 2017. Farewell to Gottfried Hattinger

Yesterday, the catalog and the festival film documentary of the FESTIVAL OF THE REGIONS 2017 were presented in Marchtrenk.
It was not only a farewell to Marchtrenk, but also to the artistic director Gottfried Hattinger,

who is now leaving the FESTIVAL OF THE REGIONS after four festival editions.

With a lecture by writer and festival chronicler Angela Flam, a screening of the festival film documentary, the cinematic project documentary “Die Unbekannte” by Amina Handke and a rousing serenade by the Marchtrenk Musikverein, the FESTIVAL DER REGIONEN 2017 in Marchtrenk was called to mind. The witty-grotesque moderation of the evening by Julius Deutschbauer and Barbara Ungepflegt as well as other artistic contributions, including a musical-literary intervention by Renald Deppe, Bodo Hell and Werner Zangerle left the festival as a living homage to the humorous and artistic togetherness of the Hattinger era.

Numerous companions and friends of the FESTIVAL OF THE REGIONS were present and made the evening a nice party.
