You and Me N8/S8, 3'45'', 2009 Germany

Tell me something about you and artistic background.
I am a student at the school for fine arts in Hamburg. I am studying film and digital cinema there. I will finish my studies in june 2010.

Tell me about this film, initial idea and work process.
The guy who made all the camera work in my found footage film was my grandfather. The woman you see my grandmother. I got all his old film material some years ago and I never had an idea, what I could do with it. My grandparents are very old today, so for me it was important to finish just something before they will die.

Are you working on new projects at the moment?
I am working on a documentary project, which will be also my examination film. More info you will find here.

What role do you think Oslo Screen Festival should have to promote your work?
They don't need to have a role. I am just glad that you show it and give me the possibility to show it to other people.
