The joint Austrian Film Museum/Viennale retrospective will present a comprehensive overview of Robert Kramer's career. The book Starting Places: A Conversation with Robert Kramer, edited by Volker Pantenburg in the FilmmuseumSynemaPublikationen series, has been published on the occasion of the retrospective.
