My life is about movies. Big movies, small movies. Producing them, Creating them, distributing them, getting them to their audience.

Visuals appeal to the subconscious. They create some form of magic. They talk to our emotions, dreams and feelings.

Text appeals to our daytime mind, our intellect, our sense of understanding.

But text can also create visuals in us. It depends. Or it simply floods us with information.

I started early, produced my first TV film with 20, became a film critic, a cinema programmer, director, producer and co-producer, distributor and marketing director - first in Germany, then in England, South Africa, France and the US.

Today I love making independent movies. and I teach people making movies, too.

My latest movie is just finished and on its way to the cinema: it is called ANGELS IN NOTTING HILL - and that is exactly what it is about.
