From one day to the next a giant orb appears on the horizon and baths earth in a glistening, everlasting light. It makes people become insane or suddenly vanish. Chased by their fear, lots of humans hole up into special shelter, where they’re waiting to the end of their living death. The menace doesnt impress Thomas, the leading actor, a lot. The lack of intimacy at the shelter cramps him much more, so he secretly visits a little storeroom to distance himself from the rest of the inmates and custodians. There, he unwittingly gets in touch with Nibiru’s light. Blinded by the light, Thomas is suddenly faced with his lost darling. From that moment on, a transborder journey between reality and fiction starts, to show the real meaning of the word apocalypse: change.
David Philipp and me were able to provide the whole audio stuff for the movie “Nibiru”. It all started with the on-set recording, the complete sounddesign and finally an ambient, esoteric soundtrack, including twelve tracks which are coined by massive drones and colourful pads.
Nibiru, a short film directed by Wolfgang Schäffer, with Alexander Merbeth, Fabienne Elaine Hollwege, Alexander Gamnitzer, Christian Wewerka, Prashant Prabhakar and Andreas Jendrusch.
