Princess
Anders Morgenthaler IFFR 2007 80′The full festival programme, including the film descriptions, trailers and schedule per day, will be available on 15 January 2020.
Young Danish director makes an animation film with Japanese appeal about the porn industry. A priest and a toddler are the unlikely protagonists in the world of paid sex, drugs and violence. Very original and not for all ages.

In the near future, in a violent and chaotic Japan, victims are allowed by law to take revenge with the aid of a special hit man. That’s how our traumatised, erratic hero Hiroshi earns his living. But basically he’s looking for his lost feeling. Film based on the strange and worrying cult mangas by Matsumoto.

Aachi & Ssipak
Joe Bum-Jin IFFR 2007 90′The full festival programme, including the film descriptions, trailers and schedule per day, will be available on 15 January 2020.
Scatological sci-fi from Korea. Animation for (im)mature people. Aachi and Ssipak are ‘independent entrepreneurs’ in a future where the government wants a monopoly on the only source of energy, human shit. To achieve this, the population is kept addicted and shit production is checked by special sensors. With plenty of Korean hardcore music. And armies with diapers.

The Host
Bong Joon Ho IFFR 2007 119′The full festival programme, including the film descriptions, trailers and schedule per day, will be available on 15 January 2020.
After careless imperialist trials by the Americans, one beautiful summer day there is suddenly a gruesome monster hanging under one of the bridges over the River Han. And it doesn’t just go away. Bong’s third film has everything: global political matters, Korean self mockery, beautiful computer graphics, spectacular action and moving family love. In short: the Korean monster hit of the year.
