Last year, newBERLIN became a film set: the agency YOUin3D.com shot several scenes of the film Kinshasa 2.0 by director Teboho Edkins there. The film is part of the project Why democracy? and will now premiere at the Berlinale 2008 , on February 17th at 2 pm at the Cinemaxx, Potsdamer Platz. Synopsis of the film: Kinshasa 2.0 tells the story of how the arrest of Marie-Thérèse Nlandu, a woman from a prominent political family in the Democratic Republic of Congo, was publicised through the Internet and resulted in filmmaker Teboho Edkins visiting Kinshasa to see how the arrest has affected the family. His film explores a tense, militarised Kinshasa, where it is extremely difficult to film, and using Second Life® – a 3D virtual chat program - he looks at his friend Carine’s attempt to keep in contact with her aunt Marie-Thérèse after she is released and goes into exile in Belgium. The film moves between the real city and the heightened world of Second Life® accompanied by a silent observer – a wooden soldier that appears on the edge of most scenes observing, waiting, watching… More screenshots and pictures of the film shooting here . By the way, you can still find the complete film set in newBERLIN, very well hidden in our cellar. If you are good moving around SL™ with the "camera " you may well find the set here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Berlin%20newBERLIN/150/172/31 Just get there and move to the underground with your camera ! |
