Selected Film Projects

von Jan Peters und Marie-Catherine Theiler

TIME'S UP – AN EXPERIMENT IN TIME-MANAGEMENT

An accident tears the two filmmakers out of their hectic daily schedule and becomes the trigger for their very personal experiment with time. The framework for this is provided by Marie-Catherine's pregnancy during which the directors leave no stone unturned in order to examine with humour and irony how today's society - and, above all, they themselves - cope with the subject of 'time'.

Anca Miruna Lazarescu

One Day Today Will Be Once

In a small church in Halberstadt/East Germany an organ is playing "Organ 2" by John Cage as slowly as possible - without a break and until the year 2640. A film full of profound, but also humorous moments which is dedicated in a special way to the question about the perception of time.

Karel Zalud

THE PHANTOM OF THE LIBERTY II

An experimental documentary about time which explores its physical quantity as well as its crucial impact on our actions, behavior, perception, social rituals and our outlook on the world.

Jan Gogola

I LOVE MY BORING LIFe

The diary of grandmother Nemcova, a woman from Prague’s neighbourhood Zbraslav, is transformed from an account of daily family life, weather observations and political events into a surreal approach to eternity.

Rainer Komers

Milltown, Montana 

Carefully composed images, impressive sound collages, no dialogues: "Milltown, Montana" is an essayistic expedition through a magnificent landscape tormented by man. With a superb visual language, Rainer Komers documents a region which was once the largest mining area of the USA and now seems to be in a phase of postindustrial standstill.
