mediart01 films is an award winning production lab dedicated to producing independent documentaries and art films.
Vienna-based, mediart01films is run by artistic masterminds Sue-Alice Okukubo and Eduard Zorzenoni.
We believe anything is possible with an ambitious story, fresh innovative ideas and unconventional solutions.
“Let’s do it independently!” This was surely our most important decision we made three years ago.
We follow our passion, which is producing exceptional films for an audience interested in society, art and culture and we cooperate with dedicated and courageous partners who share our ideals/visions.
mediart01 films was founded by Eduard Zorzenoni in 1999. Sue-Alice Okukubo joined in as artistic partner in 2002. From the beginning our work was centered around artistic subjects. Our films succeed in international film festivals and exhibitions. We did productions for the Kunsthaus Bregenz, the Tanzquartier Wien and the KunstHausWien.
In 2003 we stepped into the Austrian TV market, developing and producing "Kein Thema", an ambitious TV series exploring young people’s thoughts and opinions on “their” matters.
But we got more and more annoyed by the ever-present pressure of ratings and the chase for mainstream audiences, which would have led to a dumbing-down of our show. So we decided to stay free from outside control - and here we are today.
