Paul Scheufler, born in 1998 in Graz, Austria, is an up-and-coming director currently studying at the renowned Film University Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF. Paul showed an early passion for filmmaking and was able to create several fictional and documentary short films as a writer and director during a training in Film & MultimediaArt. These versatile talents also led Paul to the stage as an actor in youth theaters in Graz.

Paul's latest movie "EVERYTHING HAS AN END" is running on SOONER. The movie premiered at the Federal Festival of Young Film 2022 and was created during his studies at the Film University Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF. The film tells the story of Helen, a middle-aged woman who sells sausages from a mobile food stand. However, her customers ignore her until she decides to break out of her role. The film addresses issues such as precarious work situations and the pressure of societal expectations. Paul describes the film as a call to sometimes do something wrong and to intuitively listen to one's own needs. “Go Helen!” is not just a slogan, but a call for self-empowerment.
