    Echo
    Production: GER 2012

    The sunken homeland; visiting a strange place, and the certainty that we are not alone. ECHO is about how childhood reverberates; about complicated relationships, and a departure to pastures new.

    Black-and-white animation in which the evocative poeticness of the picture, and the rhythm which accompanies it, bring back deeply hidden memories. It is echo that creates movement, sets the direction. At the same time, everything is marked with freedom and lack of constraint.
