The film Rhabarber Boy (rhubarb boy) describes the life of a boy, living in a forest without the influences of civilization. He is keeping an old comic-collage in his cottage and is trying to understand the colorful and figurative images of this icon. The film is setting a fantasy-world in relation to the archaic nature of a child, and raises the question about the moral responsibility of virtual content.
Born 1976 in Schongau, he works and lives in Berlin. He studied painting and film in Vienna, Helsinki, and Potsdam. His video collages and films challenge the borders between visual art and narrative cinema. His works are regularly screened and awarded at film festivals and art institutions.
