Scene from “Window with a View” Scene from “Wedding Day” MEMORIES Vera Lalyko (Window with a View, NG 2002) At the last minute, my school, the Academy of Media Arts Cologne, offered to pay my way to Cannes. I got a cheap flight to Marseille and from there traveled by train to Cannes. I spent the first few nights in a neighboring town. The Next Generation directors were supposed to meet on Saturday, but I didn’t have my festival accreditation so I couldn’t get to the German pavilion. It was raining and quite cool, so I couldn’t pass the time by strolling along the Croisette. The only thing I could think of was to go to a normal movie theater that wasn’t part of the festival, where I watched Star Wars II with a group of kids (a matinee screen ing!). Despite my faulty French, it was a lot of fun: “Que la force soit avec vous!” Afterwards the Next Generation group met to prepare for our meeting with Minister Julian Nida-Ruemelin in a hotel lobby, where I met my fellow filmmakers. We met with the minister the next day and I remember that Professor Nida-Ruemelin explained to us changes to the federal film funding laws. We talked to him about our situation as young filmmakers. After the official discussions I had a chance to talk with him about short films and animation films. He was open to the idea of introducing a separate category for Best Animation Short at the German Film Awards. Then it was time to present our films. At the party afterwards I had many interesting conversations with other student directors and producers. I met Nana Rebhan, who was studying film production in Berlin, which led to our working together. She helped me to pro duce my next animation film, Promenade. German Films had given us DVDs with all the shorts. On our way home from the party, walking along the beach, who should I see coming toward us but Jim Jarmusch, whose films I really like. I spontane ously gave him our DVD. Who knows, perhaps he even watch ed it. I have such fond memories of our participation in Cannes. For us animation filmmakers, the glitter of Cannes and pressures of the film world will always seem like a mysterious world. Marco Gilles (producer, Knight Games, NG 2003) For me personally it was a great experience, being supported by German Films, attending for the first time the prestigious Cannes festival, and being invited to all kinds of events and meetings. The inter national recognition that our short film gained because of Next Generation was a great help in being invited to other fes - tivals. Even now, many years later, I’m still in close touch with several of the film - makers who were also in my year. Today, Daniel Mann (who co-produced Knight Games with me) and I have our own production company, where we’re de veloping feature films and tele vision projects. NEXT GENERATION, TAKE TWO! Tanja Brzakovic (Wedding Day, NG 2002) Next Generation and especially our stay in Cannes was really amazing – it was one of the greatest experiences of my professional life. Hopefully there will be more of them in the future! Seven of us (from two shorts in the program) drove down to Cannes. I was that year’s guest director, so German Films put me up in an apartment. But several other students had no place to stay, so they moved in with me. It was a lot of fun. (I hope I won’t get into trouble now – no harm was done!) It was a tremendous experience, we saw a lot, did a lot, and met a lot of interesting people. Five directors and one producer have been invited twice to Next Generation: Vera Lalyko, Susanne Buddenberg, Felix Goennert, Romeo Gruenfelder, Chris Stenner, Arvid Uibel and Raoul Reinert. And Astrid Rieger, whose Apple on a Tree is screening in Next Generation 2007, starred in last year’s Promenade d’après-midi. german films quarterly focus on 10 years of next generation 2 · 2007 14 Scene from “Knight Games”
