As a composer and filmmaker, Jannik Giger is used to exploring and overcoming the boundaries of different genres. Projects by and with him always bear his unmistakable signature.

Adelheid Kreisz's puppets are burlesque and whimsical, touching and vulnerable, graceful, enchanting or rough. She uses them to tell fables, fairy tales and myths from world literature with the help of light and shadow, sound and movement. The poetic shadow play is embedded in musical miniatures and finds sounding counterparts that create images and stories in the mind.
