Im Gespräch mit Joscha Douma | CYBERPUNK ROMANCE | Interview

German science fiction doesn't work? I can't agree with that, especially after seeing CYBERPUNK ROMANCE at the Emden-Norderney Film Festival. So I grabbed the writer and director, Joscha Douma, and talked to him about his fantastic film. OUR REVIEW OF THE FILM https://www.nochnfilm.de/cyberpunk-ro... TRAILER FOR THE FILM    • CYBERPUNK ROMANCE Trailer Deutsch | German...   ABOUT THE FILM The future is here and promises a beautiful new world: foreign languages ​​can be learned in seconds, specialized knowledge can be easily uploaded, and virtual reality experiences open up new horizons. This is made possible by connectors on the head that allow human brains to connect directly to computers and even other brains. An anarchist hacker group gleefully tries it all out – only the critical Mona (Naemi Florez) is strictly against the new technology. But when her boyfriend Milo (Jannik Schümann) falls into a neurotechnological coma, only Mona has the courage to expose herself to Brainbugs or Mental Malware. Because to save Milo, she must travel inside his mind. ABOUT JOSCHA DOUMA JOSCHA DOUMA (Director) was born in 1975 in the Ruhr area and grew up in Münsterland.
