LOLA

Dubbing mixer (German Version)

2023; Neue Visionen (Germany)

Directed by Andrew Legge.

1941 in London. Die Schwestern Thom und Mars haben die Maschine LOLA konstruiert, die Radio und Fernseh-Schnipsel aus der Zukunft empfangen kann. Sie hören Kultmusik, bevor sie geschrieben wird, platzieren todsichere Wetten und leben ihren inneren Punk aus, bevor die Bewegung dazu überhaupt erfunden wird. Als der Zweite Weltkrieg eskaliert, beschließen die Schwestern, LOLA für einen guten Zweck zu nutzen und fangen militärische Informationen aus der Zukunft ab. Ihre Zeit-Maschine ist ein großer Erfolg im britischen Kampf gegen die Nazis, verändert den Verlauf des Krieges und letztlich auch die Geschichte. Thom lässt sich zunehmend von LOLAs Macht verführen. Doch LOLA ist nicht unfehlbar. Die Zukünfte, die sie zeigt, sind nicht notwendigerweise auch Wahrheiten. Mars versteht die fatalen Konsequenzen ihres Spiels mit der Zeit erst als es zu spät ist: nicht Zukunft war es, die LOLA ihnen gezeigt hat, sondern eine Fiktion, die sich nun ihrerseits in die Zeit einschreiben und eine ganz andere Welt begründen wird. Neues, wildes und junges Kino aus Irland, das gegenwärtiger nicht sein könnte. Andrew Legges selbstironisches Spiel mit Zeit und Wahrheit führt das Publikum genüsslich auf wackelige Fährten und wirft verliebte Blicke in den Abgrund der Geschichte. Ein stilbewusster und hochgradig romantischer Thriller, der die Nerven kunstvoll kitzelt.

A Provincial Hospital

Re-recording mixer

2022; Agitprop, Chaconne Films, Sutor Kolonko (Bulgaria, Germany); Documentary; 105 mins; Bulgarian

Directed by Ilian Metev, Ivan Chertov, Zlatina Teneva

World premiere at Karlovy Vary International Film Festival (2022)

Dr. Popov and his team are pushed to their limits as their sleepy Bulgarian provincial town of Kyustendil is hit by the Covid-19 pandemic. In an endless stream, family members, neighbors and classmates find themselves side by side in respiratory unit beds, or standing at the bedsides. When patients are discharged, transferred to intensive care, or die, a new patient immediately takes their place.

The humane and resolute nurses and doctors manage to keep their spirits up with black humor, because death is a constant presence in this medical microcosm and it’s impossible to add up the overtime. In cinema verité style, the filmmakers follow the medical staff through corridors echoing with both moans and laughter.

Ilian Metev—who previously examined the Bulgarian healthcare system in Sofia’s Last Ambulance (2012)—and his co-directors Ivan Chertov and Zlatina Teneva carefully steer clear of sensationalism. Provincial Hospital, awarded at the Karlovy Vary film festival, focuses on the medical staff and their experiences of the crisis.

A Good Place To End

Sound designer

2021; DFFB; Drama; 16 mins

Directed by Jozefien van der Aelst.


The short film's narrative of fear ties landscape to character: "A Good Place To End" is a tale of orientation and disorientation. A teenage girl on a quest, a hunter trying to protect the area, and a woman sick of waiting, all wander their uncanny village, the surrounding countryside and the nearby dark forest. The three characters cross each other, but never really meet. Jozefien Van der Aelst's exploration of spatial narrativity delves into the interconnectedness of space and narrative. By intertwining the physical environment with the emotional landscapes of her characters, she orchestrates a symphony of sensory experiences that challenge our perception of storytelling itself.
