MOTODROM
Germany 2006 – Director: Jörg Wagner – Original language: None – Length: 9 min.
The world of the hellriders: men and motorbikes, speed and stunts, gasoline and adrenaline. Racing their antique bikes around the wood-panelled walls of a circular tower, the riders appear to defy gravity while the captivated audience peers down from above. Motodrom stylishly captures the atmosphere in beautiful black-and-white imagery using energetic camerawork and pulsating sound. A dying fairground attraction portrayed in a thrilling homage at 5000 rpm.
Camera: Peter Drittenpreis, Ayhan Salar, Patrick Orth. Sound: Corinna Zink, Peter Stein. Editing: Andrew Bird. Production: HKP 9. Producer: Dirk Manthey. International Sales: Kurzfilmagentur Hamburg.
