Attila Boa, 1966 – 2023
"Es sei ein Gefühl", sagtest Du, "wie irrsinnig groß das Leben und wie lächerlich klein der Tod" sei. Dein Tod lässt uns sprachlos zurück.
Wir trauern. Das Team des Österreichischen Filmmuseums im Februar 2023
Suddenly, you were here. Many years ago, at the bar at the Film Museum. The most remarkable thing about you: your wide-awake gaze, your witty laugh, your sophisticated humor, and your love for cinema. You were so taken by Michael Glawogger's films that you had to move from Switzerland to Austria. You remained a passionate cameraman, author, and humanist, always questioning and searching throughout your life. The most beautiful moments are not planned, you knew that perfectly well. We were submerged in conversation with you and wanted to keep those moments forever. Now that you are no longer here, we are left with a distant glow that we will always remember.
"It was a feeling," you said, "how tremendously big life and how ridiculously small death was." Your death leaves us speechless.
We mourn your passing. The team of the Austrian Film Museum, February 2023
