“The Schoolboy

“The Schoolboy” is CINEMANIAX! award-winning short film, produced in 2002. The 7min film, shot on 35mm, was shown at ca. 30 film festivals around the world - from Tehran over Cracow to Sao Poalo. It tells the story of Paul.

Paul is a school-boy and life is not easy for such a school-boy. No one who isn’t a school-boy can imagine, how difficult it is to be a student. The alarm clock rings at seven. In the school, the bell rings at eight. Between alarm clock and bell, Paul has to go to school where a lot of strange words meet him.

“Why not staying in bed, today” thinks Paul.

“The Schoolboy” was produced with the financial aid of the FilmFernsehFond Bayern and the Filmbüro Franken e.V. . A online version can be downloaded on www.shortstream.eu.
