And we’re still getting surprising news coming in:
Filmmaker Johann Lurf announced that he will come to the Vertical Cinema event on Apr 28 at Paul Gerhardt Church, where he will talk about and introduce us to the Vertical Cinema project
and will also be available for a Q&A.
»Johann Lurf (AT) studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, and the Slade School of Art in London, graduating from Harun Farocki’s film class. His films Vertigo Rush (2007), 12 Explosionen (2008), Kreis Wr.Neustadt/A to A (2011), to name but a few, have been screened and won awards at numerous international film festivals.« (source: verticalcinema.org)

Good news, everyone! We’ve got one further guest coming to our festival:
For the screening of »Der Nachtmahr« on April 29 Amir Hamz—producer of film—will come to Schaubühne Lindenfels and talk about important stuff with us; namely: financing (among other things)! How can you manage to shoot a film like »Der Nachtmahr«, when you’ve got no state funding for your project? Is crowdfunding really the new golden path?
Come to the screening in order to hear more about it.
