FACTORY DROP is screening internationally
Factory Drop, written and directed by Petja Pulkrabek, is completed. The short film combines science fiction with dance elements.
We are delighted to announce that Factory Drop will start international film festival screenings in August 2024. Up front we are looking forward to the film’s official world premiere in Montreal, Canada at the prestigious Fantasia International Film Festival on August 3rd, followed by festival invitations to Oslo and Los Angeles among others.
After Nocturnal Ectasy and Occasus, Factory Drop is our third short film supported by state funding. In this fifteen-minute sci-fi dystopia, two workers must escape from a mysterious factory after an unauthorized dance. Anne-Marie Warburton and Preslav Mantchev from the Freie Tanzkompagnie Kiel have choreographed the dance sequences and portray the main characters Mia and Juri. The Hamburg film project, produced by Jana Pulkrabek, was filmed in Kiel and Schwerin in autumn 2022. The cinematography was done by Monika Plura and Tobias Meik. Another power team consists of the creative duo Dennis Stöcker and Lena Schønemann for the set design. We would like to thank our amazing film team and all supporters, and we look forward to the upcoming festival screenings.
