ÜBERALL GIBT ES EIN HAUSEN

“Being free in Hausen” is the motto of this year’s seminar week, where seven women gather in an idyllic farmhouse to rediscover themselves through Kundalini Yoga, forest bathing, and candid conversations on open relationships, menopause, and aging. What begins as a journey of self-discovery quickly becomes a clash of perspectives, exposing generational divides and conflicting life philosophies.

THERE IS A HAUSEN EVERYWHERE humorously dissects a society where opinions often hinder communication. This absurd comedy uses the seminar group as a microcosm to explore themes of acceptance, reality, and truth. Can we truly accept others as they are? What separates perception from reality?

Uniquely collaborative, the film was directed collectively, with actors shaping their roles, costumes, and makeup. The script served as a flexible guide, with scenes discussed, reworked, and filmed in near-chronological order, capturing the group’s authentic dynamics as they evolved.
