THE MOST BEAUTIFUL DAY
The Estonian helmer, scripter and actor
Einar Kuusk set his post-apocalyptic story in an old bunker in a sleek Soviet-era town. He was inspired by the film sci-fi hit Oblivion and the epic game
Last of us.

IRON DEFICIENCY
Sander Jahilo's witty folklore-flirt is centered on a strange swamp encounter between the urban-technological and the natural-ecological thinking. The winner of HÕFF's script-writing contest and funded by Jameson.

WYRMWOOD
Redeeming the zombie genre, this gory low-budget joy ride by two Australian brothers
Kiah and Tristan Roache-Turner has already enjoyed serious festival-praise as being a crazy meld of
 Mad Max and Dawn of the Dead.

GERMAN ANGST
Acclaimed writers and directors Jörg Buttgereit, Andreas Marschall, Michal Kosakowski tell three distinct, yet equally horrific tales with a common theme being old images of Berlin's scariest architecture.
