My Father’s Studio

The rare film material discovered in the basement of the well-known photographer Takis Tloupas in Larissa, was a real treasure. This gave the director the motive to look for the man and his work. Guided by his daughter Vania, the crew record his artistic course, while at the same time forming an anthropogeography of Thessaly of the last century.

Café-Finovo

With patience and beauty, our understanding of mortality changes as this film takes a look at life, laughter and Wilhelm Grimm. Between the walls of the Alter St. Matthäus cemetery in Berlin, we meet artists, storytellers and tomb sponsors - the cultural life that revolves around the lively Café-Finovo and its famous cakes. Café-Finovo is the first cemetery café in Germany.
