ABOUT

The film production company  ELECTRIC SHADOWS 
LAUFBILDERZEUGUNGSANSTALT OG was founded in Vienna in early 2020 by the filmmakers Weina Zhao and Thomas Fürhapter. Since 2025, Thomas Fürhapter has been the sole owner of the company.

We are a film production company committed to rethinking cinematic practice. Rooted in diversity, intersectionality, critical engagement, and anti-essentialist ethics, we explore film as a space of entangled perspectives and transformative encounters.

For us, filmmaking is not just about representation – it is about responsibility, relation, and the continuous becoming of stories, voices, and forms. We experiment with new modes of production and mediation, where process and product are inseparable.

We don’t claim to have fixed answers – only a deep commitment to asking better questions, together.
