FAREWELL CINEMA
A picture puzzle about a woman’s near-death experience and the bit by bit passing of analog cinema films…
A young woman awakes in an old cinema and has no clue how she got there. The only person there is an old man in the projector room. Still confused she starts a conversation with him about analog cinema technology and its dying. To do him a favor she agrees to to watch a recently edited movie. While she watches it, she starts to levitate weightlessly. Suddenly lightnings and earthquakes tremor the cinema hall. She is lying on the street being resuscitated. She opens her eyes. In the background there is an old cinema. The door opens and the old man exits, locks the doors and disappears into the night.

EVIL LIVE
After messing up with an evil guy, a Lady ends up inside a coffin – buried alive in a dark wood. But with a little, crispy help things can turn upside down …
Quick and dirty – this is the idea behind a commercial for a well-known American snacks manufacturer. In shortest time and with a minimalist budget the 2 minutes (and 1 second) spot was realized. In 2017 EVIL LIVE also sparked the juries behind the Top Shorts Film Festival, the Chicago Independent Film Festival, the Calcutta International Cult Film Festival and the IndieFEST Film Awards.
