EVERYDAY SUNDAY (2005), Director: Harun Najib (Rietveld Academy Amsterdam). This movie shoots the takeoff from the inside of a plane, with no cut from the rainy budapest airport to the endless horizon above the clouds. Sounds like nothing much, but it is.

SOFTSKILLS (2009), directed by Max Fey (HFF Munich). Winner of the Panther Award 2009, Jury Award Landshuter Kurzfilmfest 2010. Soft Skills is about the integrity of a young man. He fails to concentrate in interviews in an assessment centre while his awareness of domestic violence in the neighbourhood takes away his sleep.

KOSHER (2006), directed by Doron Wisotzky (HFF Munich), with Fabian Busch and René Ifrah. Winner of the Langenscheidt "Short Cuts" competition. Kosher is about a nightly encounter in which language plays the key role. It features a version of "Nacht am Meer" which is the first song Andi Otto ever recorded as Springintgut.

AFTER HOUR (2006), Director: Max Fey (HFF Munich), nominated for Cannes Shorts 2006. After Hour is the portrait of a ruthless chap who tries his boundaries. The track "Damokles" from my Springintgut album "Park And Ride" has originally been composed for this film and Max Fey plays the guitars for this track himself.
