Leonhard Pill

Leonhard Thomas Pill, born in 1987 at the river Isar, lives and works as a filmmaker and sound aficionado between the river Danube and the Danube Canal. Together with the death metal band Over Your Threshold, he recorded an album that was released internationally in 2012 on Metal Blade Records. After studying psychology at the river Salzach, his first films were shown at the Crossing Europe Film Festival 2020 and at the Austrian Cultural Forum Belgrade in 2021. In his work, he deals with (chosen) family, achievement and ‘defect’, turbo-capitalism and stagnation, water and food. In 2021, he received a scholarship for film art from the Federal Ministry of Arts and Culture and the annual film grant of the State of Salzburg.
