MOVIES:
Feature / short narrative films, documentaries, and experimental movies:
Each new film confronts me with limitations and I can’t deal with this knowledge other than making them.
I would like to learn to communicate, I believe there is a language more egalitarian than reason.
A MAN GOING HIS OWN WAY
In an isolated swamp commune built on a male-only ideology that brands women as dangerous “sirens,” a
teenage boy begins to question the world he’s inherited when a mysterious call from the water awakens desires
he was taught to suppress.
THE QUEEN IS DEAD,
LONG LIVE THE QUEEN
“Boulevard der Stars in the middle of Potsdamer Platz, red-colored asphalt-like carpet
with ghost cameras with ghostly images of famous filmmakers and actors.
Employees of a secret acting agency work like bees in a beehive
performing various workaday roles to maintain a good reputation of the place and
to keep the hive mind alive”
CUCKOLDED AND CONTENT
“Porn film director on the verge of madness, conducts vivisection of his memories, on his preys. His life lies between upcoming problems of civilisation searching in helplessness for new forms of Indulgence, and past drifting between burning Marzanna (Slavic Goddess) celebration, huntings, and never ending war on appropriating identity of a child by one of the parents. It’s the portrayal of
climate catastrophe at the source”
THE-IN-THE-HEAD FILM
(as a writer of “the train” film)
Grandfather’s hands making pottery, the vertical linearity of a tower, a train crashing into a car – all of these are fragile, newly born film sketches that crowd each other out in a survival game for the filmmaker’s attention. The sceneries fight against each other, intertwine to form new strands, sink into an endless flood of information, shatter in a sea of open browser tabs. With his authentic voice-over and a mesmerising collection of moving images, director Konstantin von Sichart’s alter ego offers us a deep insight into his creative process. Marked by his neurodivergence, he learns before our eyes to cope with his inability to concentrate on one thing – and to weave meaning from these strands, remain true to his film idea. But how can this ever result in a film? Toxically coloured images, naively drawn and finely crafted, AI-generated, filmed from a monitor, collaged, worked-on – a wealth of tools and aesthetic approaches translates the described mental overload into the language of design. The film thus becomes more than a self-reflection of modern filmmaking: It is the portrait of a new generation – caught between the compulsion to take everything in and have a position on everything and the urge to stand still or even run away.
