Wir freuen uns auf den Kinostart am 1. März von »Nerven Bruch Zusammen« von Arash Riahi!. Für die Promotion des Films habe ich einen Trailer geschnitten. Viel Vergnügen damit. Ich hoffe er animiert zum Kinobesuch.

»Nerven Bruch Zusammen« erzählt von der Annäherung an Frauen, die außerhalb unserer Erfolgsgesellschaft leben. Eine Österreicherin, die unbedingt wieder Kontakt zu ihren zwei Söhnen sucht. Eine in Belgrad geborene Ingenieurin, die plötzlich Stimmen hört und eine Syrierin deren Mann plötzlich verschwindet und sie und ihr Kind alleine lässt. Behutsam und wie auf leisen Sohlen begleitet die Kamera den Alltag dieser und anderer Frauen im Kampf um ihr Recht und vermittelt ein Gefühl für ihr Leben und ihr Schicksal. Was sie verbindet, ist das Ausgesperrt sein von dem, was sie einst "daheim" nannten. In der zufälligen Zweckgemeinschaft eines Frauenhauses, erfahren sie Rückschläge, aber auch Solidarität. Die Kamera dient den Frauen als Sprachrohr in die Außenwelt. Ein Langzeitdokumentarfilm als Hommage an all die Frauen, die das Leben bisher nicht zu huldigen wusste.

Working for Arash & Arman T. Riahi's Crossmedia Project »Everyday Rebellion« I had the pleasure to make a short portrait about the syrian activist group EUNUS.  EUNUS – Association in Support of the Syrian Revolution: Founded in September of 2011, the EUNUS association is a conglomeration of Syrian citizens defining itself as a “jointly coordinated force” dedicated to achieving a free and democratic Syria.  This portrait will be the first to start Everyday Rebellion's contribution to ARTE's Media Platform »Le Monde Arab en révolution(s)«. Everyday Rebellion is a documentary about the power of peaceful protest and the new forms of civil disobedience in a time of global upheavel. Check it out on facebook.

The Arab world in revolution(s) wants to capture the change in Arab countries as a unique moment in history, and give Arab people a voice. This is the first time that ARTE has been involved in a long-term cross-media project, for which all ARTE program units contribute to a common effort to create an innovative platform with different linear and non-linear media outputs. In the next months, we’ll stay close to the people and events, especially when they are no longer topical issues or eventful enough for other media to cover.
