Kino Kopf is the next big sensation and spurs a technological revolution. They are soon forgotten and alone as new models surpass them.

Tasty
Ina Wecken's experimental film "Tasty".
Hempmento
Art Direction
In this hilarious parody of the indie hit Memento, roommates Kyle and Dan watch channel 53, eat pizza and chips, and smoke a ridiculous amount of marijuana. One day, however, they discover that their treasured Kind Bud is missing. Someone has stolen it and left a clue as to the whereabouts of their stash: a photo of some strangely familiar mountains. Whomever it was, Kyle and Dan vow to find them and make them pay. So they begin a journey filled with assumption, deception and consumption. Locating the missing weed, however, is complicated by the fact that Kyle and Dan have completely burned out their short-term memories. What is said or done right now is of little consequence, because in a few minutes they won't remember a damn thing.
