Extinction: Prologue
Dir. Christian Quitschke
Germany | 28 mins
Logline: Many years after the apocalypse. A lonesome wanderer roams the land, his knife always at hand. When he discovers an abandoned housing complex, he meets its only inhabitant: a strange old man constantly talking about his long-lost friend Matthew. The seemingly harmless hermit invites the wanderer to share dinner - but he keeps a secret that blurs the lines between life and death...

The Road of the Lamb
Dir. Caroline Poisson
Belgium | 26 mins
Logline: In December, 2017, Caroline Poisson accompanies Everyone is Guilty, a band from Liège of Alternative Country/Dark Western in a road-trip in Denver, Colorado. She follows Mirco, Pierre and Jérôme, left joining Slim Cessna's studio, symbolic musician. It’s the story of an album which spells and records after a long hope. It’s the story of the links which weave, of the discovery between musicians in 12000 kilometers of distance and which nevertheless join, understand and gather by the sound anchored of the gross guitars and the vibrating percussions of their music. Because it was the stake in their journey : record their album in this mythical place, with the man whom they admire so much.

3.

Suckr for Love
Dir. Nathalie Kraemer
Germany | 5 mins
Logline: Suckr for Love's socio-critical Music Video mirrors the present society we live in, tackles the topic of carelessness, superficiality and the meaning of love. If you take a second look, you will find food for thought to start caring for the wonderful world we live in and want to keep living in.
