Dreht euch nicht um – der Golem geht rum

In the 23rd century, it is no longer necessary to work thanks to the latest technology. Convicts do the work that still needs to be done. The World Leisure Center uses a computer system to decide how people spend their free time. World citizen number DARK 7035 7201 is called Prun. Although an examination shows that his IQ is too low for him to have a child of his own, he becomes the father of Botho. Because it is a "black birth", he has to keep Botho hidden from now on. Prun comes into contact with the so-called "semi-intelligentsia", who oppose the government.

The Man Who Perceives All

In his provocative new work of existential science fiction, Emre Busse invites his audience to question the meaning of “the gaze” as part of the post-human experience by replacing the eyes on the face with the orifice. This jarring visual and switch from the literal to the metaphorical leaves the protagonist to redefine his own human desires while reinventing his new self. In this new, surreal world of customizing sexual desires, one is left to question why they have been programmed to accept the bare minimum of their deepest desires in the first place!

Apocalypse Baby, We Advertise the End of the World

A pop satire. A teleshopping show that uses the fear of climate apocalypse as a reason to convince the audience to consume more and more. A film about consumerism and climate crisis, about global warming and individualism, about hedonism and guilty conscience, about the contradictions inside of us. A reflexion about the way we look away and an exposure of the cynicism of a capitalistic system. “A great many of us engage in this kind of climate change denial. We look for a split second and then we look away. Or we look but then turn it into a joke (“more signs of the Apocalypse!”). Which is another way of looking away.”

Green Frankenstein

Hiroshima, Japan: A giant monster attacks a fishing boat and devours the crew. Frankenstein expert Russ Adams and radiation researcher Takako Mizuno are suspicious. Does this have anything to do with the radioactively mutated creature they raised years ago and that had been swallowed by an earthquake? Could a new being have developed from its cell remains, one that is so closely connected to nature in the depths of the sea, that it now regards humans as a natural enemy? A lively, experimantal mix between stage play, radio play and Japanese monster movie unfolds.

Planet Magnon

A solar system in which the end of history has already been surpassed: people allow themselves to be ruled by computer reason – ActualSanity – which keeps the community of planets in an harmonious ideal state. Political processes no longer seem to be necessary in this AI-driven, totalitarian and cosy government; instead, identity-forming collectives distinguish themselves from each other solely by subtle behavioural differences. Until a threat looms on the horizon: the Broken Hearts Collective disquiets the solar system with terrorist attacks – a development at the centre of which Marten Eliot and Emma Glendale, young head fellows of the Dolphin Collective, unexpectedly find themselves.

Echoes of Juno

Juno is dead. As advanced as medicine is in the year 2030, it couldn't save Hanna's daughter's life. Juno has not been around for two years now and yet Hanna spends every day with her. There is a cube in Juno's nursery, the "Echoehub". The device is controlled by an artificial intelligence that can be fed information about the deceased and calculates possible scenarios that the deceased could have experienced in the future. Again and again, Hanna lives through new scenarios in which she accompanies Juno through all the happy milestones that she can no longer experience. Hanna's wife Paula initially thought the AI in the children's room was a good way of grieving, but over the past few months she has increasingly reached her limit. She decides to put her wife into cold turkey, but what she didn't expect was the drastic measures Hanna is prepared to take in her search for happiness.
