SYNOPSIS:

EGOSHOOTER (2004) 19-year-old Jakob lives in Cologne, sharing a flat with his brother and the latter's pregnant girlfriend, Karo. Jakob is a drifter who obsessively records his daily life on video. He films himself while masturbating, secretly observes his brother and Karo through the lens, and documents the concerts of his friend, Phillip. He gets drunk with Piet's mother, satisfies Mani on the river banks, scrounges money off pedestrians, and breaks into a house with Phillip, smashing the furniture. Egoshooter is a fragmentary document of Jakob's reality, where atmospheric snapshots form a fractured portrait of him through association rather than linear narration.

HALF THE RENT (2002) In recent years, Peter has spent his time exclusively with computers and cracking secret entrance data. During this period, he has lost touch with reality and has not realized his girlfriend's growing addiction to pills. One morning, he finds her dead in the bathtub. Paralyzed by the shock, he leaves Berlin in a trance. The coincidence carries him to Cologne, where he starts living secretly in the apartments of strangers, leading a shadowy existence. As a secret intruder, he feels protected from the memories and faces that haunt him. Slowly, he regains his way to real communication and sincere mourning.
