Editorial
Austrian cinema has given birth to some of the most accomplished dramas of existential self-discovery in recent years. Shortly after Revanche, there was Breathing: a sympathetic and deeply felt portrait of a juvenile relocating his place in an imperfect society. A thoughtful, compelling movie.
