Das Bild in mir THE IMAGE INSIDE In this portrait, Gerda Lepke speaks for the first time about the story of her life, of the difficulties of becoming an accepted artist. We accompany her in her studio and her home in Gera and Dresden. A documentary about the “Kafkaesque” life enclosed in her studio space and her mother’s small house and garden, with insight into the difficulties of a female painter who grew up in East Germany (GDR). “A meeting and friendship that began in the mid 80s, led me into the ‘garden of the painter’. This gave me the closeness and made it possible for me to realize a portrait of a painter in her own words, as she speaks to herself. I received, in each phase of the film’s production, surprise new encounters with the work and life of the artist Gerda Lepke.” (Wolfgang Scholz) World Sales (please contact) Sic!

Erinnere Dich REMEMBER After his father’s death, Rufus returns to the house, where he spent his early childhood. He and his girlfriend want to spend some days at the lake, but after their arrival, strange occurrences happen. Figures seem to sneak around the house, trying to get in. Searching for traces of his childhood, memories come up in Rufus’ mind, leading him to the mysterious disappearance of his sister Sophie. In his visions, he realizes that she was put into an institute to be abused for clinical experiments. After her escape, she returned home, but her parents refused to let her in, being afraid of her violent behavior. Chased by the director of the institute, she then was drowned by him in the lake. Since this crime, she is haunting the house, trying to get inside. After a night of revelation, Rufus decides to change the past, and opens the door to let Sophie in. This action alters the circumstances that led to her death, giving her the chance to take revenge in order to return back to life.
