Architecture student Valeria Klein received an award at the international short film competition “Sustainability Through Your Lens” hosted by Sophia University in Tokyo.

With her film “Revitalization Obergasse”, she impressed the jury with a sensitive cinematic portrayal of an urban space in Altstaetten (Switzerland). The short film illustrates how a previously underused street can be transformed into a lively meeting place through simple interventions. Pop-up living rooms, plants, play and seating elements, and a small neighbourhood café turn the public space into a place for encounter and exchange.

International competition for students

The international competition invites students from partner universities worldwide to present their personal perspective on sustainability in a 90-second film. The focus lies on creative and authentic stories that address social or spatial questions from everyday life.

Valeria Klein’s contribution was developed in the context of the Pro Bono module in the Master’s degree programme in Architecture at the University of Liechtenstein.

The University of Liechtenstein warmly congratulates Valeria Klein on this international recognition.
