When You All Sleep, I'm Awake

Portrait of the Viennese singer-songwriter Bernhard Schnur, who achieved cult status in the 1990s with his indie pop band "Snakkerdu Densk". Several years after the band's breakup and a long-term creative hiatus, Schnur started 2008 into a struggling solo career. Reinhard Liegler and Bernhard Hofinger visited the musician in his tiny, substandard flat and accompanied him for nearly a year: strolling through the streets of Vienna, performing at local pubs and neighbourhood festivals and at a reunion concert with his former bandmates from "Snakkerdu Densk" and Irish star singer-songwriter Glen Hansard.
