Uploads!

You could say that making movies is like living many lives one after another.


Each time you enter a new universe, that you create from the very beginning.
From the moment the concept is born till the first independent steps of the moving picture, 
you are always there - going though different joys and difficulties, deepening into the sense of this 
dynamic creation. 
We are in the process of post production - and there is a lot of work left! 


Some more uploads form the shootings!










Stay well and strong!

Crowd funding = power


The production is up to something innovative - gathering money through the brilliant idea of crowd funding. We have the first donner Ms. Patricia Piepper  - thank you.
Now the main task and idea is to spread
the news about the campaign and keep on working!

Blow, blow, thou winter wind!










Wanting to shoot in a white snow scenery we had to speed up our preparations and travel to mountain picks before the spring puts a spell on this land. 2000 m above the sea level did we elevate Mount Parnassos white slopes! Withstanding the freezing wind we shot the first takes. How adorable is the blind chance that crosses the paths of a cinematographer, when a cloud that you would not even imagine, passes by and changes the whole scenery in the most picturesque land.

TELEPHERIQUE SYNOPSIS





We all sneeze, don’t we? 

Yet for Ivan it was quite a different story. It all started one evening at 
the Opera House where Ivan was admiring the passionate adventures of divine Carmen. 
O! Colors, gestures, lights, music, movement, romance, and o! 
Ivan sneezes. Here comes a moment of stillness and immediately 
after that something horrifying draws his attention. 
Right in front of him – a man wiping his bold head with a handkerchief! 
No, not just any man! It’s Mr. Brizzhalov!
Ivan immediately asks for apologies and consequently is pardoned. 
But Ivan cannot enjoy the opera anymore, it all turns into a nightmare. 
He had just sneezed at Mr. Brizzhalovs head and it is a darn serious thing! 
            From this moment on, Ivan's days shall be doomed by this happening. 
Sense of guilt, anxiety, and shame. Ivan gets into a whirl of fear a tornado of his
 own mind interpreting the events in a self-destructive way.
 Ivan will struggle for two long days, might be the longest days of his life, going to apologise
Mr. Brizzhalov five times, each time even more sure that
Mr.Brizzhalov does bare him a grudge
…until the moment when Mr. Brizzhalov explodes. This outburst brings a final liberation of
 Ivan’s enslavement to his restless mind.
            
This story is about all of us, executing the will of the noisy despotic mind, overcharging facts, making them far more important , dramatizing our existence.

This story isn’t imaginary at all and could be happening to your fellows.
"A created thing is never invented and it is never true: it is always and ever itself" - F. Fellini
