Aufzug (2012)
Character: Sven
The story is set some time in the past, or maybe some time in the future. Given a time-frame, we would say somewhere between the American moonwalk, and Coca- Cola's serious ambition to turn the moon into an advertising logo. Our central character, the young lift operator, is formed by experience into cynicism, detachment, and apathy. The story builds to its crescendo: of public outrage and state crackdown; the banality of commercial interest and the monumental rape of nature. Set in a large newspaper office, the Lift is a place of relative safety. But floor by floor, with each passenger in his or her tableau, the atmosphere of mayhem seeps in. Finally our young character leaves the situation, far-gone in hopelessness and disinterest.

Plan F (2025)
Character: Sebastian
Franka is a punk—wild and loud—but her star is fading. Her younger sister Maya has retreated to their parents in the countryside and now lives somewhere between rubber boots, coffee on the sofa, and no desire for change. When Franka thinks she has seen their missing sister, Lilly, on the street one day, she feels compelled to at least try to “save” Maya. What follows is a chaotic road trip from Brandenburg to Berlin, a night full of arguments and laughter, old accusations, and new honesty. In the end, there is no solution, but maybe a new beginning. A raw snapshot of two women who are closer than they think.

Oberon (2017)
Character: Puck
Production of the Munich Opera Festival 2017. The plot of Carl Maria von Weber's romantic fairy opera, which premiered at London's Covent Garden in 1826, is quite astonishing: after the fairy king Oberon has fallen out with his wife Titania, it is humans of all people who are supposed to make things right. Titania will only be reconciled if a human couple proves the truthfulness of their love to the death. Oberon's servant Puck already has someone in mind: the crusader Hüon of Bordeaux, who loves the caliph's daughter Rezia.
