Sabina G. Kufner: For me it was the great pleasure of story-telling and listening, combined with a very strong play drive. As long as I can think, I have played the theater, later studied literature in Munich. About the literature, I came to the film, the medium that just did not let go. At New York University, I immediately became one of the most sought-after places for screenwriting and directing at the end of the literary studies.
Peter Knoll: Frau Kufner, how do you get to the film?
Sabina G. Kufner: I have seen by chance the Facebook page with the bidding and decided on the short term for the participation. The apprentice, the Munich Filmwerkstatt, I value his commitment to independent filmmakers.
Peter Knoll: You have now participated in the Kaliber35 competition for three years. How did you get the idea?
The first time we received no prize, the film is called "sustainability control". But I am fully behind the film, my team and I still find it successful. It is technically and safely made easier by the light than "Diaper Viper" (to the Siegervideos 2012) from the following year.
Peter Knoll: What attracts you to this competition?
Sabina G. Kufner: On the one hand I like the way of working, a lot of space for spontaneous creativity is needed here - which can be very fruitful for the creative process. There are work models in Profibereich that inspire me, for example by directors like Mike Figgis, who use the improvisation technique, or Michael Winterbottom or Wong Kar-wai. Or the Muppet show. The Muppet show had a concept, but each program was then developed dynamically with the guests. I find the work very appealing. My way of working is similar.
Peter Knoll: How and when did you put together your team this year?
Deadlines are also very important, because otherwise a film would never be finished and they are a huge motivation for the whole team. So they watch the movie on the next day, not after weeks or months. The results of the Kaliber35 competition, in which all films had to be produced within 35 hours, were consistently very high-quality, many films have fallen me crazy.
Sabina G. Kufner: I just came out of the holiday and did not want to participate, because I have just a lot of other projects running. Then came just my drive and then I talked to some people - the decision fell overnight, after almost all respondents enthusiastically.
Film history: 25 unpublished film scenes
This year we worked with a small team, we were at eight. I personally prefer to work with a normal team of around 20 people. If you already know the team, you are already already played. With a team like last year, I could make a feature film as well.
Sabina G. Kufner: Today I would definitely think of a bad weather alternative and as soon as possible for the location, because we could start this year because of the rainy weather only after delay at 14 clock. And there's a day of shooting already damn short.
Sabina G. Kufner: As a director, I would like to realize my handwriting, whether this is now a short film or a feature film feature. If you are working together creatively, like now in our feature film, which I am writing together with my Viennese colleague Philipp Kaindl, and of course, a common vision is of course essential. It's a comedy !! . That's the reason why you're pulling the same line of artistic, and especially the sense of humor
Personality is very important to me personally. I want to inspire the audience with a "vision", entertain and not the least to shake the people out of their normative everyday life and life context. It's always true: We're still sitting around the campfire - and that's what's going on at the cinema!
Peter Knoll: What would you be doing differently today with such a twist?
Peter Knoll: What are your goals as a director?
