We wanted to kill all nasty ones

91 Min., Dokumentarfilm

A deadpan, reality-based satire about the improbable purchase and impossible sale of a bunker hill — a film poised between rigorous documentary observation and dryly comic science fiction.

Beginning with a rotational movement, SPIN places mobility and difference, relationality and the absence of answers at the centre of an inquiry poised between theoretical physics and Sufism.

An der Saale hellem Strande

19 Min., Dokumentarfilm , Experimentalfilm , Kurzfilm

The film deals with the memory of Delfin Guerra and Raúl Garcia Paret, two Cuban contract workers in the GDR who died in Merseburg in 1979. During a visual tour of the city, acoustic fragments from Stasi files, letters and Facebook chats condense into a reflection on forms of remembrance and racist continuities.

Last Year in Utopia

73 Min., Dokumentarfilm , Experimentalfilm

Last Year in Utopia documents an experimental set-up: a staged group media experiment, isolated from the outside world, is reconstructed on the site where the original events unfolded. The boundaries between autonomy and heteronomy dissolve in new role assignments as the film makes the power structure behind the artificially created utopia visible.
