Your new movie Perverted
Desire - in a few words, what is it about?
This
short film is about a guy who lives isolated in his own world, not able to
connect with people. Isolation, loneliness and unfulfilled desires are its
topic.
To ask quite bluntly, why teddy bears?
The
teddy bears and also the other stuffed animals are meant to indicate that
the man has stopped in his cognitive development, these material friends
from his childhood are still with him.
He
has no idea how to deal with people and communicate with them, so in the
end he manifests the woman in the teddy bear in order to be able to
perform the «act». (Other)
sources of inspiration when writing Perverted
Desire? Perverted
Desire resulted from a small idea that I suddenly had, like some of my other short
films, and
then I started to write a short script. You've chosen to make Perverted
Desire a dialogue-free movie - why is that, and was it planned
like that from the get-go or did it only turn out that way only during
writing or maybe even during production? This
was planned from the very beginning to underline the lack of communication
and the loneliness the main character goes through. The pictures shall
speak for themselves. Now I
interpreted Perverted
Desire as a very dark comedy, something I gather you don't quite
agree to - so what's your take on things, and even if you don't share my
point of view, do you at all understand where it's coming from? It’s
actually very interesting that someone can see a comedy in this, which again
proves the fact that everyone can experience the same film in very
different ways. Perverted
Desire wasn’t meant to be funny or even a dark
comedy, so I don’t really know at which parts you could laugh, but then
again it’s up to the viewer's interpretation.
Do talk about your cast, and why exactly these
two? I
asked Thomas Goersch if he wants to do it, and after I sent him the script
he didn’t hesitate for a second and agreed. As for the female role we
both went through our contacts, and Thomas recommended Ulrike Röder to me and I
agreed. A few words about the shoot as such, and the on-set
atmosphere? The
shoot was focused and happened fast, which means that we shot everything
within a few hours on a Sunday in November. There were no problems on set,
which also was because the two actors knew each other before and had
worked together once. The $64-question of course, where can your
movie be seen?
This
question is a bit difficult to answer because I don’t know yet how or
where this movie will be released. Its duration is only around 10 minutes,
which means that it might come out with other short films or as an extra
at some point in time.
