Director: Mirijam Verena Jeremic
Placement: Award of Merit + Best Actress (Mirijam Verena Jeremic)
Competition: March, 2025
Synopsis: The film is intended to guide the viewer both visually and psychologically in a very mystical way to a fictional city whose characters have dark secrets to hide and where each one plays with the fire.
Director Statement: My inspiration for Pink City Film was Twin Peaks but after I wrote the script two months later I had to experience a real tragedy of my fictional written story. My Neighbour Melanie Rehberger was killed in the park by the criminal man in our neighborhood and therefore it was really difficult for me to realize and finish the short film.
In the end I dedicated the film to Melanie and at the spot where she was killed I had the desire to cleanse the place of evil energies and we shot there the kiss scene between the two women in love.
