  • In her films and installations, Isa Rosenberger repeatedly draws attention to the forgotten, repressed, and displaced female pioneers of Austrian- Jewish cultural history. Courage is dedicated to Stella Kadmon, a theater director, actress, and chanson singer who, after returning from exile in Tel Aviv in 1948, founded the Theater der Courage on Franz-Josefs-Kai in Vienna as a decidedly anti-fascist and anti-racist avant-garde theater. In Rosenberger’s cinematic exploration, actress, director, and theater manager Emmy Werner recounts Kadmon’s career and private life on her own stage, which continues to be used for theater today. Commissioned by the Wiener Festwochen in 2015, the work traces, through shifting visual and linguistic layers, not only the trajectory of a woman’s life but also examines, from the perspective of the present, continuities within Austrian postwar society.
