Hinterm Berg... sin' a' no' Leut & Hinterm Berg is an experimental film that looks at Bavaria as an international tourist destination. In the style of a road movie, the two protagonists examine the aftermath of the pandemic and the long road back to tourist normality. The project focuses on the interplay between advertising images and real experience, the difference between mental projection and what is actually seen. While international tourism in Bavaria slowly climbs to its pre-pandemic level, Hinterm Berg uses the transitional phase to bring this connection into the light cinematically.
Directed and developed together with Tian Guoxin. Cinematography and editing by Tilman Bechtold, camera assistance by Bokyoung Jeong.
Hinterm Berg was made possible by the program Verbindungslinien of BBK Bayern and supported by LEONARDO-Zentrum für Kreativität und Innovation.
