Whispering Water - a pixilation short

A girl has to tremble about her sweetheart. Love and sadness come together in a story told in a bathroom. As the couple experience love and darkness the bathroom descends into new settings. Her fears, memories and fantasies to save him mix together in a vivid fantasy. The story gets abstracted through the stop motion technique Pixilation.

I co-wrote and co-directed this experimental short with dramaturg Annabelle Leschke (Nationaltheater Mannheim).
