Nachts leben
Documentary Film
How do individuals who stay awake, experience the night? Although we usually see them asleep during the daytime, here we are introduced to 5 individuals who choose to or must stay awake throughout the night. With only the street lamps to guide us, our new “Mach mal” production explores the lives of these individuals, as each one of them has a unique perspective and their own individualized experience of what it means to have a lifestyle consisting of dark “day-times.”
