"Die Ballade von Schnuckenack Reinhardt" 78 min, 35mm, 1996
Schnuckenack, 1921 in Weinsheim bei Bad Kreuznach geboren, spielte in der Gruppe seines Vaters, nach dem Krieg dann für die amerikanische Besatzungsmacht und später mit Bandleadern wie Kurt Edelhagen, Paul Kuhn oder Max Greger. Mit seinem ersten eigenen Quintett trat er 1967 das musikalische Erbe seines 1953 verstorbenen Großcousins, des legendären Django Reinhardt, an.
Der Film will mehr als eine Porträtstudie sein. Er setzt die Verfolgung der Sinti und Roma durch die Nazis ins Bild. Mit Schnuckenack begibt sich das Filmteam nach Polen. Dorthin war dessen Familie 1940 deportiert worden.

Asamahan 20 minutes, B&W, 2005
Asmahan is a rearrangement of Asmahan’s B-film Passion and Revenge (1944) in the tradition of
Joseph Cornell's avantgarde classic Rose Hobart.
Asmahan is a film poem about the famous Syrian singer of the same name. The film is made up of
four parts: love, death, love, and death. Each part follows one of two songs Asmahan sings in the
film which are used as a structural motif throughout. Like her musical notations, every shot is
connected to every other shot.
Asmahan was a Syrian Princess who was the quintessential figure of sin and freedom to women in
the Arab world. She left her home and husband in Syria in the 1930’s to pursue fame in Egypt. The
British secret service are believed to have murdered her in 1944 after they’ve discovered that she
was a double agent working for the Egyptian government as well as the British colonial rule.
Asmahan’s life was shrouded in myth and intrigue and several stories about her modern attitude
towards life, her smoking and drinking, and her many romantic liaisons continue to generate the aura
around her even after her death. |

Manuel Peno La Canción de Femérlin
Doctor Fémerlin finishes his new invention, a mechanism to hypnotize people. He starts to take advantage of his neighbours whith it, but the sudden arrival in the village of a person, with particular characteristics, was not on his plans.
