Die Nacht der lebenden Loser NIGHT OF THE LIVING DORKS Philip, Konrad and Wurst, three very unpopular highschool students, are in an awful car accident that should have killed them. Just before the accident, though, they undergo a strange voodoo ritual. As a result, instead of being killed in the accident, they enter a twilight zone between life and death. Initially, their transformation yields more good results than bad: they become smarter, stronger and completely immune to pain. This guarantees their positions not only as starters on the school rugby team, but also secures them enormous popularity with the in-crowd. Philip even manages to make the school’s beautiful sweetheart, Uschi, fall for him. The bereaved party is Philip's pal and neighbor, Rebecca, who has always been secretly in love with Philip, and is now in peril of losing him to the incrowd. Ironically, it's her own fault: Rebecca and her friends performed the voodoo ritual themselves. Eventually the darker side of their living-dead status surfaces: Philip is a slave to his libido; Wurst is a constant partier; and Konrad is a merciless avenger of all humiliation he suffered as an unpopular schoolboy. Though Philip and Wurst try to control Konrad’s rages, they have a hard time keeping him from running amok. The only way to change themselves back to normal is with a magic potion composed of strange herbs, holy water and the blood of a virgin – the last of which Rebecca reluctantly gives them … World Sales: please contact Hofmann & Voges Entertainment GmbH · Mischa Hofmann, Philip Voges Arnulfstrasse 297 · 80639 Munich/Germany phone +49-89-17 87 70 · fax+49-89-17 87 74 10 email: info@hofmannvoges.com · www.hofmannvoges.com Genre Comedy, Coming-of-Age Story Category Feature Film Cinema Year of Production 2003 Director Matthias Dinter Screenplay Matthias Dinter Director of Photography Stephan Schuh Editor Cornelie Strecker Music by Stefan Ziethen Production Design Florian Lutz Producers Mischa Hofmann, Philip Voges Production Company Hofmann & Voges, Munich, in co-production with Constantin Film, Munich Principal Cast Tino Mewes, Thomas Schmieder, Manuel Cortez, Collien Fernandes, Nadine Germann, Hendrik Borgmann Casting Rita Serra- Roll Special Effects CA Scanline Production, Geiselgasteig, Magic FX, Munich Studio Shooting Eisbach Studios, Munich Length 90 min, 2,475 m Format 35 mm, color, 1:1.85 Original Version German Sound Technology Dolby Digital 5.1 With backing from FilmFernsehFonds Bayern, Filmfoerderungsanstalt (FFA) German Distributor Constantin Film Verleih GmbH, Munich Matthias Dinter was born in 1968 in Singen on Lake Constance.

Paraiso At first you might BELIEVE it's a documentary. Then you will THINK it is fiction. In the end, you will neither BELIEVE nor THINK, but only FEEL that you are in the right movie, in the middle of life, in Cuba's hottest spot … A few pieces of wood washed ashore by the sea and some old plastic bottles are enough for them. And there is music – powerful, vibrating, exploding – young Cuban rhythm. In Guantanamo, where the ”grandsons“ of the old singers of Buena Vista Social Club are performing, there are no pubs, no studios, no Ry Cooder – only poverty, rain and sex. And yet the young band of the tropical south is playing the music of the street. Rapid, hot, and aggressive. A pulsating mix of rap and hip hop – on wooden instruments. ”Our music,“ says the guitarist, ”you have to dance, to feel, in order to hear it.“ The music comes from the struggle on the street and tells about quotidian life, love, betrayal, dreams, frustration and boredom. Paraiso approaches the wounded heart of Cuba in poetic pictures. A deep, authentic, close-to-the-origins world opens up to the audience, where information alternates with impressions, feelings, moods, music, and silence in a very personal way.
