Bin Laden Shoot to Kill

2011 • 60 min • United Kingdom
The inside story of the hunt for Bin Laden. When I started watching this I didn't expect to learn anything I hadn't already read about and so went into it with low expectations. But from the moment Barak Obama turned up talking about what he was seeing and having to make decisions on, it was obvious this was going to be far more revealing than expected.

Side Effect Happiness

Side Effect Happiness

2011 • 52 min
Wolfgang and Roland are 72 and 58 years old and have lived together in Berlin since 11 years. They say, that today their life is happier and more fulfilled, than it was 25 years ago, before they met and neither Wolfgang, nor Roland knew, that they are HIV Positiv. Before the Virus, they lived an unremarkable middle-class life. They had a job and forgotten, faded or suppressed artistic ambitions. Back when they grew up and first discovered their affections towards men, homosexuality was still considered a felony in Germany. Both are deeply moved when they tell us how the Virus irrupted their lives. How it changed everything. They buried their lovers, too many friends and lost their jobs. For them, as for the many thousands infected in the 80's, a survival seemed hopeless. The virus dominated their lives and the numerous side effects of the first medications robbed their vital force and dignity. Today all this hardly meets the eye anymore.

This graduation film is a clever and meditative piece that both caresses and attacks the senses. Director Tasaka Naoko said: 'I'm pursuing something undistinguishable, with no name or with no boundaries, like something implied in a loose connection of the words in poetry. It's not an unknown thing. It's something which I already know but I don‘t know how to describe. I search in my experience and recollection trying to rebuild something similar with the fragments of my memory.'
