I want to embed a Python application on a device with limited

Python interpreter to a set of modules that's urgently needed?
Of course there is. What is the target platform ?
What can be done is to go through the python source code and comment out
everything that *you* find unneccessary. I can't tell you what this
would be - because I don't know exactly what you are after. But to your
question - the answer is yes.. of course.
Or is there a method to have gzipped modules that are unzipped on the
fly into memory when they're accessed? That would be even better.
Yes - also possible.
Additionally, is there a Python module that contains all the stuff
needed for an embedded application like graphics, sound etc.
No. Because that depends on what hardware platform you want to run on.
or do I have to use the various bindings to libraries like cairo, Qt
or similar? Is there a site that helps with those decisions?
I doubt it. These are decisions for you to make according to the
limitations of your hardware.
I've really looked at a lot of places but haven't found a suitable
solutions yet, so I'm asking here in hope that someone has experience
with that topic.
