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.

Electric Shadows Films is an open, critically reflective and diverse film production company. It is our aim and concern as a company to counteract all forms of discrimination, the hardening and canonisation of identities, sexism, racism, classism and ableism with our films, our way of working and our initiatives. This includes taking a firm stance within our own company against all forms of discrimination, group-based misanthropy, bullying and violence.

We offer filmmakers a high degree of creative autonomy and freedom. At its core is a fair and supportive working relationship, the creation of a creative production environment and shared decision-making at all stages of a film project.
