"No Time to Get Old" is a video documentary by filmmaker Sol Haring. It is about the aging of female artists. The film portrays twelve American women in their 50s from the cities of Akron, Ohio and Little Rock, Arkansas. The women talk about getting older, they talk about their artistic work and they make music!

The filmmaker Dr. Sol Haring herself is a scientist and musician in Austria. Her research network has taken her to Akron and Little Rock and her scientific endeavors in the field of gerontology and gender are incorporated into this film. She herself produced, directed and edited the video documentary, which was co-produced by Andreas Wildbein. "No Time to Get Old" can also be viewed on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4FVZb9nIDk

Electronic music and feminism are two fields whose intersection is probably not known to many people today. One important protagonist of this intersection is Susanne Kirchmayr aka Electric Indigo. She has been on the road for 25 years as a techno DJ, producer, label owner, musician and feminist.
Her internationally far-reaching feminist project is female pressure. Ffemale pressure is an international network, a database of musicians, DJs, VJs and other people who are active in the field of electronic music in the broadest sense. Since female pressure, the excuse often heard from organizers that there are no women in this field no longer applies, according to coloRadio in the introduction by Susanne Kirchmayr aka Electric Indigo.

A study by female pressure, which analyzes gender relations at international festivals, provides sad figures: only 10% of female musicians and DJs are booked at festivals and in clubs. In Berlin, 92% of acts booked in 2013 were male. That sucks. The question of the visibility of non-male people is a precarious one here.

The program section TRIBUTE at the Crossing Europe Film Festival is dedicated to innovative European filmmakers who have already attracted attention at international film festivals, and Joanna Hogg is this year's Tribute director. Joanna Hogg is seen as a representative of a reinvigorated British cinema, one of the most prominent female voices of the last decade, who has made a name for herself nationally and internationally as a versatile director. The director was in Linz for the duration of the film festival; Roswitha Kröll and Kerstin Horner met her and conducted an interview with her.
