About Axel

I am a Filmmaker and Producer running my own company in Cologne, Germany. www.lumatik.de
I have 15 years of experience in the business, took part in several international feature-film productions and have a number of award-winning own productions under my belt. I am looking for exchange, to learn new things, and meet new people "in the business".
I am also well versed in the German film-funding landscape and always interest in co-productions.
