Creating a film for your hometown - a dream come true.
We were asked by the city of Hamburg to create their new image-film. Its task: attracting tourists as well as new citizens wanting to live and work in this great city permanently. Core of the brief was only one thing: Don’t do another one of these typical tourism-marketing campaigns.
So we didn’t.
Instead of showing typical Hamburg postcard shots we decided to take another route. Presenting Hamburg in more surprising and unusual ways. By exaggerating, by telling stories that are not completely true, by showing things that are absolutely unbelievable - because they are not true.
Making this the first film about a city where the viewers have to find out themselves what’s true and what isn’t. Of course this can best be achieved by traveling there and finding out what’s for real. So come buy and try to find the mamouth, the hotel that builds wells and all the other things that make Hamburg so special.
