the final land at fancine
The "FANCINE - Fantastic Fim Festival of the University of Málaga" is the third festival of the "Méliès International Festivals Federation" (MIFF) that shows our film - in this year's edition in a virtual way. From 11th to 19th November you can watch "The Final Land" - limited to Spain - online. The program includes short and feature films, mainly new indie cinema, but also classics like "Brazil" or "Back to the Future".

spanish premiere
Our film has recently been included in the program of this year's "Fancine - Festival de Cine Fantástico Universidad de Málaga" in Andalusia - which will take place next week (which of course was very much on the brink of failure recently). But it's nice that it will work out now - corona style! This will be our Spanish premiere.

first NEW german reviews
Up to now we had mainly reviews from abroad, English and Italian-speaking - but now the German-language film critics seem to be "reactivating" - here are two excerpts from two reviews on "programmkino.de" and "indiekino.de":
"Celebrated at several festivals, this science fiction film is a chamber play that is carried by its claustrophobic mood, its intensity, its dense field of tension on melancholy and manic obsession. An impressive film that shows that science fiction with little possibilities but great vision is also possible in Germany."
(https://www.programmkino.de/filmkritiken/das-letzte-land/)
"Influences from "2001" through "En attendant Godot" to "DAS BOOT" and the "Odyssey" (including the sirens) add up to an original story with an existential touch, in which everything fits: a manifesto of cinematic creativity, powerful and thrilling."

asian premiere at chuncheon filmfestival
The day before yesterday the Chuncheon Film Festival started in South Korea and as a European contribution "The Final Land" is part of it - our first (of two) screenings and therefore also our Asian premiere will take place today!
For their program the team around program director Dongyun Eddie Lee was especially interested in no-budget productions - and as you can see, also from Germany. The festival has been advertised extensively in the last weeks, also on South Korean television. We are very excited about the feedback!

Last wednesday our film was screened in our hometown Siegen for the first time - open air! It was a great experience watching our movie again in this very special atmosphere - on the top of the hill called "Siegberg" right by the castle! Many thanks to all the people involved in this warm and friendly evening - and many more thanks to the audience for coming, clapping and talking the film with us afterwards!
