Würfels Stern

Würfels Stern

An apocalyptic grotesque.

1999 · 15 min · Science Fiction

Due to a small malfunction, the rulers of the planet are briefly distracted from the final catastrophe. Nevertheless, it arrives. We plan to film on location in the universe and elsewhere, and to rebuild the entire planet in its original size. We categorically reject special effects: We intend to interfere as little as possible.
