ENDZEIT – EVER AFTER, is a post-apocalyptic feminist gothic fairy tale that takes place two years after zombies have overrun Earth. Two young women, Vivi (Gro Swantje Kohlhof) and Eva (Maja Lehrer), develop an unlikely friendship in order to survive. They are stranded in the no-man’s land of the Black Forest where they have to rely on each other and on nature, while in search of a more humane world. But their survival has also unleashed demons from their past that they must confront. In the end, love arises not only for each other, but also for the fantastic natural world surrounding them. According to the director Carolina Hellsgård: “ENDZEIT – EVER AFTER reflects upon our future existence, how we choose to live, and what our options will be in a world where nature strikes back. The aesthetics are inspired by the quirky and refreshing style of Olivia Vieweg’s graphic novel, which the script is based on.” About the filmmaker: Carolina Hellsgård is a writer-director, born in Sweden and based in Berlin. She studied experimental media design at the Berlin University of Arts and film directing and screenwriting at Cal Arts in Los Angeles.

Carolina Hellsgård and Face2Face host David Peck talk about her gorgeous new film Endzeit (Ever After), faith in humanity, collective guilt, environmentalism and why having a positive view of the apocalypse is important. Trailer Synopsis Two years after the zombies have overrun earth, the German towns Weimar and Jena are possibly the last holdouts of human civilization. Endzeit follows two very different young women, VIVI (22) and EVA (26), who are involuntarily forced to join forces. While fighting against the undead, they develop a strong friendship, and must also confront the demons of their past. Vivi is desperately trying to find out what happened to her little sister, whereas Eva dreams about starting anew, far away from her role as the expert zombie-killer and Weimar they have left behind. Their adventurous journey takes place in a lush and beautiful apocalypse; now that the humans have gone, nature is taking over. But nature knows no boundaries and soon the two young women have to deal with a new and fantastic reality. In the end, their relationship survives it all.

Politik möter glamour när Berlins filmfestival samlar regissörer från hela världen. Kino är på plats och gör ett helt program från den 62:a upplagan av Berlinalen. Bland annat träffar vi den legendariska brittiska skådespelaren Charlotte Rampling, ser finsk science fiction om nazister på månen i filmen Iron Sky och träffar Alicia Vikander som spelar en otrogen dansk drottning i det historiska dramat En kunglig affär. En av de skandaler som kungahusen i Skandinavien nästan levt längst med är den om hur den danska drottningen Caroline Mathilde handlöst föll ner i passionsträsket med sin mans livläkare på 1700-talet. Historien har blivit film i regi av Nikolaj Arcel. Mads Mikkelsen spelar livläkaren och Alicia Vikander spelar Drottningen Caroline Mathildeen roll som krävde att Alicia skulle lära sig danska. Och det visade sig vara lite svårare än hon först trodde. Barnfilmen Isdraken, regisserad av Martin Högdahl, tävlar i Berlin. Roger Wilson var med när filmen hade premiär förra helgen och i Berlin är man noga med att publiken består av barn och tonåringar, en åldersgrupp som inte håller tillbaka några reaktioner. Något som gjorde visningen till en mycket speciell upplevelse. Det som också var lite speciellt med visningen var att filmen direktdubbades till tyska. Axel Peterséns film Avalon har gjort en framgångsrik festivalturné via Toronto och Göteborg och nu är det alltså dags Berlin. Med på plats var också delar av teamet, som skådespelarna Johannes Brost och Leonore Ekstrand, som även är Axels faster. Kino gav Axel en bandspelare, och lät honom spela in en dagbok med sina intryck från Berlins filmfestival. Och det visade sig i ganska stor utsträckning handla om praktiska saker. En av festivalens allra största snackisar, det är trots allt Iron Sky, den finska science fictionfilmen om nazister från månens baksida. I filmen åker nazisterna till månen, när man inser att man håller på att förlora Andra världskriget. På månen bygger man sedan en bas och konstruerar krigsrymdskeppet Götterdämmerung, för att försöka inta jorden från rymden. Några av de svenska filmare som kvalificerat sig för Berlins filmfestival kanske också är morgondagens stora svenska regissörer. Kino har träffat fyra av de kortfilmsmakare som medverkar på festivalen. I sektionen Generation Kplus deltar Ina Holmqvist och Emelie Wallgren med dokumentären The Quiet One om sexåriga Maryam som kommer till Sverige från Iran. Hon får börja från noll - utan språk och utan vänner i sin nya klass. Filmen är Ina Holmqvists och Emelie Wallgrens examensfilm från Dramatiska institutet men de väckte stor uppmärksamhet redan med sin förra film gjord under skoltiden, kortdokumentären "Så nära". Unga huvudpersoner är det även i Carolina Hellsgårds kortfilm Hjälten som handlar om två vänner i stallmiljö och Fanni Metelius skildring av tonårsliv i Banga inte, Roger Wilson har träffat dem.
