Sun Under Ground
Director
A group of people, a flashlight, a strip of x-ray film is buried in the gravel of uranium mining sites in Saxony and Thuringia for USSR's atomic weapons program. The ground exposes the film, leaving behind a trace of its invisible rays.
Depth of Field
Script
With its image axis repeatedly tilting and tipping out of frame, Depth of Field examines three places in the German city of Nuremberg which are haunted by the memory of the racist murders committed there by the NSU far-right terrorist group between 2000 and 2005.

Rainbow's Gravity
Sound Editor
Rainbow's Gravity is a cinematic study on the Agfacolor-Neu colour film stock made in Nazi Germany. Along its three layers of emulsion, the film digs deep into the escapist colourised landscape of this time and asks for the material requirements, retentions and ideological continuities of the Agfacolor palette. The film sequences, projected in the former production line, dismantle not only themselves, but also our view accustomed to historicise. The film tries to realise, not only how it had been - in the darkrooms of the Agfa film factory - but also how it can be possible at all to face this reality today within film, in images and movements without a final or even conciliatory view of the past.
