Schwimmen

After Elisa suffers a breakdown, which is mercilessly filmed by her classmates on their cell phones, the two turn the cameras on their tormentors in revenge. Director Luzie Loose tells the story of Elisa and Anthea, two 15-year-old girls whose unlikely friendship gives them support and guidance during a difficult period in their lives. "A stirring, exhilarating and palpable "coming-of-age" experience is created by Luzie Loose with her very fine staging work. It is a unique interplay between security and toxic structures that literally makes us feel like we are "swimming" through it." (Sooner curator Jacqueline May) "I deal intensively and passionately with how children and young people grow up today. I observe that they are growing up faster and faster in our ever faster turning world. They are independent, educated and worldly - but they are also overwhelmed and disoriented." (Luzie Loose)
