Festival-Trailer for EXPERIMENTA #10 – November 28 - December 3, 2017 in Bangalore, India
This is the brandnew trailer that I made for the 10th edition of EXPERIMENTA film festival, starting on Tuesday in Bangalore. But this trailer is much more than "just" a trailer, it's also a preview for my forthcoming film _GALORE, which we shot in September/October in the markets and bazaars of Bangalore. We managed to shoot in 28 jam-packed shops within a tight schedule of two weeks, and this was only possible with the amazing support of my crew, so a big thank you to Poornabodh Nadavatti, Siddharth Govindan and Vishnu Nambiar!!! Further I would like to thank the Goethe Institut/Max Mueller Bhavan and Experimenta for inviting me for this year's bangaloREsidency and making all this possible: Thank you Shai Heredia, Claus Heimes, Maureen Gonsalves, Nora Duchêne, Aditi Rajeev and Gavati Wad!!
My film CAMERA THREAT will also be screened there in the International Competition section on Thursday, 30th November 2017, 14:15 hrs

A really nice review on CAMERA THREAT, written by Matt Turner on MUBI Notebook.
Double Projection of CAMERA THREAT at the UNESCO World Day for Audiovisual Heritage
This is the rare opportunity to see CAMERA THREAT in its originally intended form of presentation as a digital / 35mm double projection with the filmmaker himself sitting in the projection booth and controlling the synchronization between the two projectors by hand and on the fly, why the film is being screened.
The program has been curated by Elena Hahn, Sophie Krambrich, Laura Reboredo Raposo & Esther Riese In cooperation with the master program Film Culture Heritage at Filmuniversity Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF and will also feature the experimental film BLACK by Anouk de Clercq. Both filmmakers will be present and join a discussion after the screening. The evening will be hosted by Sophia Wetzke.
