KEY TO HEAVEN

HEMELSLEUTEL has been selected for the International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR) 2025.

Logline:

From the perspective of the filmmaker, we follow the process of a possible feature film about a photographer (Lea) who is tasked with documenting the energy transition in the port area of Amsterdam. This brings up a flood of memories and associations. What do you do with what hasn’t gone well in your life? How well can you know someone dear to you? Filmmaker and character appear to coincide more and more during the process.
