Shortfilm "AIR" by Sven Lützenkirchen

(WMV 20MB, Length 3:21, 2001, Germany, original release 35MM SRD) 

(It´s in Windows Media 9 Format. On the Mac please install the Windows Media Player. I tried to encode in Quicktime, but for this movie it just wasn´t good enough.)

For this amazingly photographed downhill biking drama we decided to circumvent the clichee of heavy action music and went for pure sounddesign. Its dry and cartoony style goes along with the ironic but still admiring perspective on downhill biking.
