Thorsten’s first feature film, The Irrational Remains (2005), premiered at the Berlin Film Festival and won numerous awards.
Synopsis: In 1987, Suse’s boyfriend Matthias flees the GDR with her best friend Susanne. The escape fails. They fall into the hands of the secret police, who try to break their will. It’s not until sixteen years later that the three of them meet again.
Furusato古里 (2011-2016), Thorsten’s second feature, is a monumental portrait of a wounded community and an unsparing look at the human cost of progress. The film illuminates the four years that followed the worst nuclear disaster of our time at the Fukushima Daiishi power plant in Japan. The film premiered at DOK Leipzig, where it won the grand prize, the Golden Dove.
