The Long Road Is Short
I came here excited by this basic idea of stasis. There's this Mexican animal called the axolotl, a very curious animal. This salamander can remain in its larval stage all its life, choose not to grow into the higher state of its species - this animal, unmoving, only watching, without changing, without advancing to a higher stage of existence. Like us sitting for hours in front of our TVs, clutching our mobile phones...

Easter in Lusatia and Under the Lusatian Mountain Region
A two-part film essay accompanies use through the Easter week on both sides of the border between Germany and the Czech Republic – Upper Lusatia in eastern Saxony, Lower Lusatia in Brandenburg in the region under the Lusatian Mountains and in the Czech region Šluknov Hook. We’re shown the Easter customs and costumes. On the German side – i.e. in both Lusatias, where the smallest Slavic nation lives that has still preserved its Slavic language, the authentic footage of customs and costumes are only slightly revived in the tales of witness of the times. The Easter week culminates with the celebrated rides of the Easter Riders to the Divine Easter Feast that some 1,700 riders regularly take part in in Upper Lusatia. On the Czech side, the Easter customs and costumes are only revived in the testimony of witnesses – Czech Germans – and in the reconstructed sequences of these nearly forgotten customs and costumes through the history of the turbulent region. Both parts feature the Christian Passion week with its ceremonies and services.
