we are so happy to finished the shooting in leipzig after two weeks of hard and great work!
We had a good fortune with all our locations, the weather was fine and the help was great! A big hug to Niklas Hoffmann, Ole Toense, Matthias Petzold, Katrin Rivera, Ines Hauschild (Veit Hauschild Immobilien), the midwives of the "Geburtshaus am Marienplatz", the community association of the property Könneritzstraße 1, LUDWIG Filmverleih, Constanze and her baby belly and last but not least a big thanks to all our learners on the set and at home. You are really great filmers and organizers! This film will be the document of your great teamwork!
We all tried to look pregnant. Again! ;) The requisite came from the theater. It is the baby belly of the fairy tale "sleeping beauty"!
The first location - the superior flat of the character "Anna Funke" - the preparation of the actress was a big fun and the learners did a great job!
The script changed through the process of filmmaking and became more fluent and logic - filming is like mathematics! We also tried to involve the kids of the learners to finalize a document of our common experience and growing!
In the second location - the cosy flat of the character "Anna Funke" in the early years -
we learned that is really hard and time-consuming to find the best place for camera, light and sound setting.
This was the most emotional moment in the shooting! Constanze came to be part of our movie with her real baby belly (the red one)!
