HELL is a stark, post-apocalyptic thriller in the tradition of THE ROAD and NO BLADE OF GRASS, a rare horror film that relies on character and atmosphere instead of gore. Five years from now, the world as we know it ceases to exist. Water and food are scarce. The sun has turned Earth into a scorched world. Yet three people have not yet given up hope. Sisters Marie and Leonie drive their car into the mountains with Phillip in hopes of finding water. But after Leonie is kidnapped, their loyalty and faith are put to the test. Executive Produced by Roland Emmerich (INDEPENDENCE DAY), HELL is an eco-conscious disaster movie driven by strong human emotions.

Filmmaker(s) expected to be in attendance for post-screening Q&A at both screenings.

Tim Fehlbaum was born in 1982 in Basel, Switzerland, and studied directing from 2002 to 2009 at the film and television academy HFF in Munich. He made various short films there, including FÜR JULIAN, which won First Prize in 2004 at the Shocking Shorts Awards. In addition, he has directed music videos, for example, for the Munich band Blumentopf. Fehlbaum also worked as a cameraman on the documentary films KINDER DER SCHLAFVIERTEL (2005) and MY AMERICAN COUSIN (2008). AM FLAUCHER, a low budget zombie short film, was designed to be a type of exercise for HELL. Tim Fehlbaum wanted to demonstrate how he could create the style and atmosphere of HELL in small dimensions. AM FLAUCHER brought Fehlbaum to the attention of producer Thomas Wöbke. They wrote the screenplay to HELL together with Tim's fellow student Oliver Kahl.
