Frauke Finsterwalder, Filmmaker, Finsterworld.
FRED’s Matt Micucci chats with filmmaker Frauke Finsterwalder on her narrative feature film debut FINSTERWORLD, which is screening at the 59th Cork Film Festival. She talks to us about how for this film she built a whole microcosm, how she was influenced by fairytales and her use of dark comedy to deal with some dark and intense themes and issues.
This is the story of a number of individuals in Germany whose lives are connected in some ways, and all of them have dark sides which may shock us to the core.
