ein Sommer lang ONE LONG SUMMER One Long Summer tells the story of Vroni who, as the summer slowly unfolds, experiences her first love in a small Bavarian village. Apart from the daily monotony of farmhouse chores and shy conversations about boys and sex that she has with her friend Gerti, Vroni finds herself drawn, again and again, to the woods, to the caravan of Ales, the young Czech puppeteer. Using a quiet visual language, with soft almost dream-like sequences, One Long Summer shows the sweet melancholy of first love and the dusty, dragging summers of childhood that seemed to be endless.

Ein Freund von mir A FRIEND OF MINE Karl and Hans couldn’t be more different. Karl is a young mathematician with a promising career at an insurance company, whereas the man-about-town Hans only takes up the odd job to get by. When they meet, Hans asks Karl whether he is happy. Karl doesn’t know what to reply until Hans shows him what makes him happy: ice cream, girls, coffee, airplanes, the fastest backwards driving car in the world, and driving a Porsche at night in the nude along the Autobahn, for example. For Hans “friendship” means to share everything, even Stelle, the queen of his heart. This is too much for Karl. But then, you can’t just get rid of a friend like Hans, and a woman like Stelle is unforgettable … Genre Comedy Category Feature Film Cinema Year of Production 2006 Director Sebastian Schipper Screenplay Sebastian Schipper Director of Photography Oliver Bokelberg Editor Jeffrey Marc Harkavy Music by Gravenhurst Production Design Andrea Kessler Producers Maria Koepf, Tom Tykwer Production Company X Filme Creative World Sales TELEPOOL GmbH · Wolfram Skowronnek Sonnenstrasse 21 · 80331 Munich/Germany phone +49-89-55 87 60 · fax +49-89-55 87 62 29 email: cinepool@telepool.de · www.telepool.de Pool/Berlin, in co-production with Film 1/Berlin, TELEPOOL/ Munich Principal Cast Daniel Bruehl, Juergen Vogel, Sabine Timoteo Casting Nessie Nesslauer Length 84 min, 2,289 m Format 35 mm, color, cs Original Version German Subtitled Version English Sound Technology Dolby SRD Festival Screenings Hamburg 2006 (Opening Film) With backing from Filmstiftung NRW, Filmfoerderungsanstalt (FFA), FilmFoerderung Hamburg, Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg, BKM, MEDIA German Distributor X Verleih/Berlin Sebastian Schipper studied Acting at the Falckenburg Schule in Munich before he shot his first short Wunderhell in 1994.
