Company Profile
We are a Munich-based film production company. For us, it’s not only the final result that matters, but also how we work together — because the two are inseparable.
Whether feature films or series, we produce fiction with the audience in mind from the very beginning, always taking a audience-driven approach. We combine creativity, strategy, and craftsmanship to tell stories that resonate.
Film is a collaborative art. We develop, question, shape, and produce together, guided by the belief that honesty and quality can only emerge through true collaboration. We see ourselves as part of a new generation of filmmakers: closely connected to the world around us, bold in our thinking, and convinced that films should spark something meaningful, but always entertain.

As if they didn't have enough problems already, Resi and her three friends get into a fatal accident on their trip to the Alps. The clique promptly find themselves in a Bavarian afterlife authority that is to decide their fate. Elysium, purgatory, rebirth - anything seems possible. But when it becomes clear that the group lacks all conviction, the crucial question arises: what the hell happens to someone who believed in NOTHING when they were alive?
With plenty of humor and a keen sense of the absurd, director Julius Grimm's feature film debut sees up-and-coming stars Sarah Mahita, David Ali Rashed, Nhung Hong, Beritan Balci and Julian Gutmann battling the bureaucratic madness of the afterlife. There is celebrity support from Rick Kavanian, Rainer Bock, Luise Kinseher, Maxi Schafroth and many more. The film is accompanied musically by Roy Bianco & Die Abbrunzati Boys.
