Frankfurt Coincidences / Scheduled for release 2011
The movie takes the viewer on a journey, whereby the question at the beginning is: How different cultures in Frankfurt am Main, one of the most multicultural cities in Germany, identify and live with each other.
The movie is about family, soul searching, love, escape, cultural, social problems and incidences in our society, like you would find in any big city.
Each character´s conflict melts into one flow in this episode movie. A mixture of tension, narration, identification with the characters, as well as diving into a world full of multicultural collusions, takes us into a new and still untransparent world.
Writer/Director: Enkelejd Lluca
Camera: Dennis Mill
Length: 80mins.
Der Film nimmt den Zuschauer mit auf eine Reise, deren Ausgangspunkt die Frage ist: Wie sich verschiedene kulturelle Charaktere in Frankfurt am Main, einer der multikulturellsten Städte Deutschlands, identifizieren und zusammenleben.
Es ist ein Film über Familie, Selbstfindung, Liebe, Flucht und stets aktuellen kulturellen, sowie sozialen Problemen und Ereignissen in unserer Gesellschaft, wie sie in den meisten Großstädten stattfinden. Die einzelnen Charaktere und deren Konflikte verschmelzen in diesem Episodenfilm in einem Fluss zusammen. Eine Mischung aus Spannung, Erzählung, Identifizierung mit den Charakteren, sowie das Eintauchen in eine Welt, voll von multikulturellem Zusammenprall, lässt uns in eine vielleicht neue kulturelle und immernoch wenig transparente Welt einzutauchen.
Buch und Regie: Enkelejd Lluca
Kamera: Dennis Mill
Produktion und Szenenbild: Anne Walde, Janina Schimmelbauer
Länge: 80 min.

Wenn Bäume Puppen Tragen / Released 2010
Seit ihrer Geburt lebt die siebenjährige Nabila in zwei verschiedenen Welten gleichzeitig. Einerseits ist sie die Tochter afrikanischer Einwanderer und damit in deren kulturellen Wertesystem beheimatet. Andererseits hat sie den afrikanischen Kontinent noch nie betreten. Sie spricht besser Deutsch als ihre Muttersprache und ihre beste Freundin ist eine deutsche Türkin. Trotz allem kann sich Nabila auf die erste Reise in das Heimatland ihrer Familie freuen, zumal man ihr ein großes Fest und viele Geschenke versprochen hat. Noch ahnt Nabila nicht, dass ihre Eltern die Reise geplant haben, um die vermeintliche kulturelle Identität des Mädchens mittels eines Jahrtausende alten, überaus grausamen Rituals unwiderruflich festzuschreiben.
Since her birth seven years ago Nabila has lived simultaneously in two different worlds. On the one hand, she is the daughter of African immigrants and therefore at home with their cultural values. On the other hand, she has never visited the African continent. She uses German as her preferred language. And her best friend is a German Turkish girl.
In spite of this, she looks forward gladly to her first visit to her family's native country. They have promised her a big party with many presents. She does not foresee that her parents have planned this journey in order to confirm her supposed cultural identity by way of the thousand-year old, utterly revolting and totally irreversible, ritual.
