Dynamo DOC Award

The best documentary at the Landshut Short Film Festival 2024 portrays a protagonist that we never really see from a personal, artistic, and scientific perspective. We all know this protagonist, but do we all see her the same? Are we even seeing the same thing? The film challenges us to use our imagination. And now we’re all imagining a film about the color red – shot in black and white.
What sounds simply impossible at first, the director assembles into a successful experiment that takes us on a journey back to childhood. Despite its absence, you can clearly imagine the color red in every moment of the film. You actually have to.
Complex, yet lightly designed and interwoven, the text and images form a flowing unit that artistically and multi-perspectively portray the color red. Composed rhythmically, the film plays with our perception as much as our memory.
