Almost 100 Lower Austrian traffic islands in five minutes, circled on a Vespa, its engine howling at the architectural dreariness of their surroundings. In roundabouts there is no escaping the sometimes futuristic panorama. At the start of the film the circle already closes. Silently and as if floating, the camera begins its orbit by circling an underground traffic island. 2011: A Circular Odyssey.
