SP 09 TeenScreen: Teenage Riot!

Between the search for future perspectives and self-discovery, we explore the concrete jungle, stroll through forests by night and sleep in sunflower fields. Perhaps for the first time ever, we bear the consequences for thoughtless behaviour, enjoy the last rays of sun and experience what it's like to be able to communicate with our loved ones using a minimum of words. Radical, poetic and experimental, "Teenage Riot" eludes the trap of pre-fab narratives and cuts to the quick of life, ignoring taboos. Three cheers for adolescence!
