The preparations of a sound installation by artist Ernesto Romeo is suspended when his mother falls ill. This interruption motivates the director to embark on a series of projects that share a mysterious connection to each other.

German mockumentary about the history of the techno band of the same name. Fraktus were once considered the pioneers of techno. Now, after 25 years, they are planning their big comeback. The band is supported by their manager Roger Dettner, who used a trick to get the band back together.

„Flüpperle“ means nothing short of a cigarettte. If you thought you knew everything about german dialects, this crazy story proofs you wrong.

The other guy talks about living abroad.

Water as a physical and metaphysical metaphor and background of human existence. A docu-fictional essay between the Brazilian Sertão-deserts and the Northern-German flood areas of Dithmarschen. Dramas and day-by-day-observations in times of climate change.

A film critic with philosophical interests, played by the film critic Roger Koza, wonders about the nature of Nature. And he obsessively tries to capture it with his phone camera. Other experts—filmmakers from different countries, art historians, a scenographer in charge of a natural science museum, and members of the human species from a distant future—think about ways of representating nature. A kaleidoscopic, playful collage, sometimes fiction, sometimes documentary, the film cannot help but wonder about the nature of cinema itself.

Roger Koza goes back to Hamburg after the pandemic and looks for his old friend Elmar.

What are we looking for when we travel? What kind of pictures do we take and what kind of images do we get? Three people in three different times travel through the same regions.

Philipp Hartmann made a film, toured the German cinema scene with it and made that into a film too: an overview of an eclectic mix of cinemas all run by cinephiles. Shared love entails shared suffering: every Kino is under threat.

Every day, an aging filmmaker whose eyesight is deteriorating spends long hours in a retail park. He waits for his wife, who teaches drawing. A portrait in and of a non-place, shot on 16mm between the supermarket and the carwash, meditations and reveries.

In March 2020, 25 young musicians from the Bolivian Experimental Orchestra for Indigenous Instruments (OEIN) came to Germany to play concerts in Berlin and Dresden. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the concerts were cancelled. Then, as Bolivia closed its borders, the musicians found themselves stuck in the Music Academy in Rheinsberg/Brandenburg for almost three months. Together with their German colleagues in the ensembles PHØNIX16 and noiserkroiser, they face the crisis by developing several musical projects, a large part of which involves incorporating improvisation into contemporary music.

The largest salt desert in the world – the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia. But that doesn’t change the finite nature of our existence. A visual experiment in ten acts.

Hartmann proposes a 76-minute film in which each minute stands for a year of his life. This obsessive rule is invoked in the last 4 “years” of his life (and of the film). A cable-car journey codes in its own duration the secret of a perdurable shot. A poetic emancipation by a young filmmaker: a life plan finding its right frame. Roger Koza
